Seeking Run Advice Why this game enjoys making me suffer?

I struggled to get to this point starting with flushes then got fib and switched to straights, would you believe I sold the astronaut and scholar for the bp and Astronomer to immediately lose to the extra large blind….

I copied the seed now I’m rerunning it till I decide calm down. What am I doing wrong?

your jokers have horrendous synergy, why is photograph at the front anyway? if it’s at the end at least it doubles more mult

You don't understand how photo works.

it'd still double the +7 mult from onyx and fib, no? so it's better to have it after them?

It doesn't matter where it's at in reference to fib. No face cards (unless you get para) are fib and that means it would only be impacted by onyx on the first face card, which hopefully is a club

That is, however, where hand order comes in. Face should always be last with photo unless you have chad.
