The Hook is the one that discards 2 random cards per hand. It's basically insta-lose for me. What do you do when faced with it?

I don’t have a lot of trouble with it. My strategy is usually full house or two pair without any focus on card in hand stuff like steel cards. I also lean pretty hard on face card strategy most of the time. All of that seems pretty immune to the hook
I honestly think two pair is one of the best strategies in this game. The first several times I won was using two pair and it took me forever to find anything as good
