They really should swap the red and green stake challenges. Bigger blinds isn't as big of a difficulty spike as losing $3 on the first blind.

I think the first stake penalty is a smart design because it trains you to start paying attention to the skip tags, it's pretty easy to coast to your first win ignoring them

That's true but tags can be such a massive opportunity cost, especially at Ante 1.

firmly believe that if you skip a boss reroll they throw you a cards-face-down boss just to gently caress you over

purple stakes is brutal. extra big boss blinds are almost always run ending. even at ante 4 it's 100,000 chips

I think the Hiker joker is maybe insanely good. Like if you go super lategame you have very limited options in terms of increasing your base chip value, but it can do that and then you can still sell it later

e: also weird behavior, I guess a bug: I have the "flushes and straights can be made with 1 fewer card," but that shouldn't make this a Straight Flush lol

I guess I was thinking the same 4 cards would still have form the entire hand but...... yeah I guess I can see a straight flush being any hand where you have both a straight and a flush. it's kind of a weird definition thing

yeah if the straight-but-4-cards and the flush-but-4-cards are using different sets of 4 cards i could see that just being a flush and not a straight flush (since you can't add just one card to any 4 and get both a straight and a flush), but don't the same four cards (JDTD8D7D) form the entire hand here?

also this game owns even though i still suck
