Synergies[]
Decks[]
Blue Deck gives an extra hand letting you get a potential one extra upgrade per blind.- Black Deck inversely is less useful due to it giving -1 hand
Poker Hands[]
Simple hands such as Pairs or Two Pair are easy to find and play, thus making it easier to consistently level these hands up.
Jokers[]
- Burglar's +3 Hands are perfect for trying to level up easy-to-assemble hands like High Card and Pair.
- Oops! All 6s increases your chances of upgrading the hand to 1 in 2, or 50%. Two copies makes it guaranteed.
Trivia[]
- Burnt Joker is similar, but it provides an upgrade when discarding hands instead of playing them.
- The reason why an astronaut joker was chosen for this effect might be because planet cards are the primary way of upgrading poker hands.
- The fact that Space Joker is triggered by chance may be a reference to the risk of spacecraft launches. However, according to NASAās data, the average historical success rate of spacecraft launches is about 80%, way higher than Space Joker.
