"Play 1 hand"

Would've hit 11k in 2

I had a good run going with that joker that gives you 3x multi if the hand type has been played that round. I would just throw out whatever 'two pair' and then get 3x on the next one. got to the boss, and "Play 1 Hand"... game over

one thing that heled me a lot is getting my jokers and cards in the right order. you want any joker that adds to the multi on the left, and jokers that multiply the multi on the right. same with the cards you play, any 'glass' cards, or other cards the multiply the multi need to be all the way on the right

I will say this as a tip. There is an element of chance but there are a lot of cards/jokers that seem useless at the lower levels that are godlike when implemented properly. Plus finding synergy with your planets and arcana.

that joker that turns your face cards gold, and the vampire that strips cards of their enhancement and adds to to a multiplier, work crazy together

Need to immediately check the boss blind in a new round or else you will lose lots of games.

I just cannot beat 40k

Sad shyt is, I be cooking up to that point then I can't get a good hand going for shyt at the boss.

Tarot, celestial cards, nothing.

Synergy, synergy, synergy.

BEAT IT BREHS

Whoever is new, go through your joker collection and see which ones you need to unlock. You might find something your missing that helps your playstyle. Also, keep buying all the vouchers, even if you think they're useless because if you buy it 10 times then you can buy the upgraded version and some of them are really good. There's one where for every planet card in your consumable area you get 1.5 mult for that hand or reroll the boss blind an unlimited amount of times for $10. The game is super deep.

yeah I hit my first million point hand like a week ago,

trying to hit it again got me feeling like a straight junkie.

Currently trying to unlock 2 mineral Jokers (rough gem and bloodstone). That shyt is ROUGH. the other two (onyx and arrowhead) I just sorta got by chance. My game act like it don't love hearts or diamonds.

@Zero that deck is fun. Only use that hex card when you got one good joker. If you gotta sell the rest, then so be it.

Just started playing on mobile. Had me up for five hours after work last night/this morning when I'm usually sleep 45 minutes after getting home. Definitely should have played this sooner.

About to uninstall this shyt off my phone. By the time I get some good shyt going at work, my break is over

My biggest hand was 4 billion+ but it was so long ago I don't even remember what was going on.
