Hanging Chad is a Joker that retriggers the first card that is scored in a played hand twice. This effectively triples that card's Chips value, plus any bonus effects it may have from Card Modifiers.

Because Hanging Chad retriggers the first card, it's important to have lots of useful buff cards in the deck. The Zodiac Deck benefits greatly thanks to its increased Tarot Cards rate in shop, while the Yellow Deck provides early economy to afford booster packs.
Poker Hands[]
Hanging Chad's effect applies to whatever card in a played hand that is scored first (i.e. the left-most card in a played hand). Before playing a hand, the player should re-order their cards so that the first scored card will be one that will provide the most benefits. For example, if a card will provide extra Chips or Mult when scored, Hanging Chad can be used to triple that benefit.

Trivia[]
- A chad is the fragment of paper created when a hole is made in paper or similar substances, for example, with a hole punch. A hanging chad is one that hasn't fully been separated (specifically in a way where it's only still attached to the paper at a singular corner), and in some systems, such as computer punch cards or voting machines, it could cause errors.
- The dot and line markings along the left edge of the card are binary numbers, where a dot represents 0 and a dash represents 1. The four visible numbers are, from top to bottom, 1, 2, 4, and 5. The hanging chad presumably obscures the symbols "
ā¢ā¢||
" or "0011", which is binary for 3. - Possibly a reference to the 2000 US Presidential election, where hanging chad on punch card voting ballots became a subject of major controversy, requiring multiple recounts. The election was so close that a court had to decide whether ballots with hanging chad should be counted.
