    35:10 I think Jupiter couldn't appear in the packs because it was in your shop. Only one of a planet card can exist at a time, so if there's one in your shop, it won't be in the packs unless you buy it first. Similarly if you're holding a planet you won't find that planet in packs/shops, so you can hold bad planets if you have space to make good planets show up more.

      you can find cards again, but only one at a time. Think of them as individual decks, I think it's specially intuitive with tarot cards: there's only one copy of each card in a deck - if you have it in your hand or it's already on the table, you can't draw it from the top of the deck. That is, unless you have the joker that allows duplicates to show up.

    42:00 So the probability with blueprint is actually marginally worse than 50/50, it's 7/16. To calculate probability of either of two independent events inclusively, you take P1+P2 - P1*P2, so 1/2- 1/16.
    And if you're wondering about bloodstone, the probability of it not triggering at all is 32/243, or about 13%. It's a lot higher than I thought.

    I knew NL was blue/black. Also, Bloodstone 30% of the time, works every time. Lastly, MadTv did a scit where the guys pretend to be gay to hookup with girls. They do this for years.

    It's frustrating to see him play into superposition when he has vagabond and would get more tarot cards if he just played bad hands instead of straights

    I'm not good at Balatro, NL has definitely beaten more runs than me, played more of the game than me, and gotten better hands than I can. I'm sure he knows what he's doing. But I still cringe when I see him not even consider skipping blinds when The Pillar is the boss.
