How it plays
Every ante has three blinds: small, big and boss. You get 4 hands and 4 discards to beat each one. Pick up to five cards and play them as a poker hand. The hand type sets your starting chips and mult, each card that scores adds its chips, and the hand is worth chips times mult.
Beat a blind and you cash out: a few dollars for the blind, $1 for each hand you didn't need, and $1 of interest for every $5 you're holding, up to $5. Then you're in the shop. Boss blinds don't have special abilities in this version.
28 jokers
The shop sells jokers from the real game at the real prices, and you can hold five. Some add mult for a suit, some retrigger cards, Bull turns your money into chips, and Blueprint copies whatever sits to its right, so the order you put them in matters.
Controls
- Arrows move the cursor.
- Enter picks a card or presses a button. In the shop, press it once on a joker to see what it does, then again to buy it.
- Enter on one of your jokers, then on another one, swaps them. Del sells the joker you picked.
- Clear goes back to the title screen. Press it again there to quit.
