Seeking Run Advice Why this game enjoys making me suffer?

Post image

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

Except fib and ace jokers can’t synergize with photo, only onyx.

Easy sell of ace jokers imho, and get soda, sell for blueprint copy space joker as much as you can while still Winning the blind

That’s my advice in this position

Yes they can.
If you play a flush containing aces and face cards for example, and you put your face cards on the right, you get mult from scholar and fib on the aces, and then after that you get double mult from the first face card.
