Video Poker Strategy Calculator

I wanted to visit the casino for the first time in over a year and I've noticed that FPDW is no more so I'd like to play 15/8 Loose Deuces. I went to wizard of odds strategy calculator and keep getting an error message. Does anyone know where I can access a basic strategy for this game? Thanks in advance,

KC

I always preferred the 17/10 Loose Deuces in Laughlin.

I'd prefer the 17/10 too but Laughlin is a two hour drive each way so.... =)

I get the same error, and not just on LD. FYI, it worked for me within the last week or so…

No error for me:

You’re welcome!

For what it's worth, I'm getting the same error.

I also get that error. It has been reported to Miro, our technical genius.

Did Miro happen to give an estimated time for when it would be back?

In case it helps… I get the error on iPadOS 14.6, and it reads as follows (in case it varies from OP):
