Only played it twice so far so not much. I don't really have a good understanding on how to chipmaxx yet. Do you want to throw away shit cards while making a lesser hand so you don't have to use discards? Do you want to keep discarding to make a good 5 card hand (flush/straight), or just go with 2 pairs or 3 of a kinds when you got 'em?

Normally I'd be more up on this shit by now but we had a dog emergency (he's fine now :dog: ) and have been busy the last 24 hrs.

Early game discarding for high flush/straight to money :marseybux: Maxx is ideal.

Chip maxxing can be done via a foil effect on joker :marseyevilgrin: cards :marseygambling: or enhancing cards :marseyyugi: in your deck via arcana pack which will add +30 chips :marseyrulebritannia: to 2 selected cards. There's also what's called stone :marseyrock: cards :marseyaceofspades: which have no suit or rank but give +50 chips when played in a hand but then you can't do straights or flushes really

Generally you want to try to build :marseyyarn: your deck around a joker :marseysociety2: playstyle for example there's a joker that has +13 multi per queen :marseyking: held in hand or a joker :marseyclown: that let's you play gapped straights. It gets a lot better :marseygenetakovic: when you unlock more stuff.
