    @djlee_exe 7 місяців тому +84

    Watching NL has made me realize the danger of the misprint. Obviously you recognize that the mult is random when you add it to your deck, and it’s a nice starter joker, but after a few rounds you kinda just forget about it, and it totally fucks with your ability to estimate how many chips any given hand will score, leading to underestimating good hands and overestimating bad hands.

Then I got invisible joker, copied the fib and popped off for the rest of the run with those 3 jokers.

    You can do a high card build but you threw it by investing all your other celestial cards into small hands. Why play a pair thats basically the same as your high card when you could've spent the celestials on a big hand that you fish for by using high card to discard. Like if you just put your other celestial cards into like full house or flushes, you'd have at least a potential for a high scoring hand

    Hey NL, here's a min/max tip for you on Blind 1 - if you can get a Full House with a number total of 35 or higher, you will win on the first hand, often saving at least $1. This also puts you at $10 so in the range for an extra interest!
