There are more ways to form a straight (or a straight flush) with a 5,6,7,8,9,T than with a 2,3,4 since A/2/3/4/5 is the minimum straight. If you keep the 4, then you can not make a K/A/2/3/4 straight. This makes it better to keep the 5-T than a 2-4 by a small margin. So if you are going for a 3+ of kind, it is better to do so with a 5-T & Joker than a 2-4 & Joker.
