The Duo is a rare joker that offers an easy x2 Mult any time you play a hand containing a Pair. It can be unlocked by winning a run without playing a Pair (though playing other hands that contain pairs, such as Three of a Kind, are allowed).
Since Duo offer only x2 Mult and has no scaling potential, it has limited utility past Ante 8.
Synergies[]
Decks[]
All decks work equally well, though Erratic Deck is slightly better, because the odds of a finding a pair are higher given the unequal distribution of the deck (if this seems counter intuitive, see the birthday problem).
Poker Hands[]
Although only a x2 Mult boost, this joker will trigger on most hands except Straights:
- Pair, Two Pair
- Three of a Kind, Four of a Kind, Five of a Kind
- Flush (once you've added or altered cards to allow for paired cards within a flush)
- Full House, Flush House
- Flush Five
Jokers[]
Any joker that provides benefits to pair hands provides direct synergy: Jolly Joker and Sly Joker. Outside of this, there aren't really any general synergies in the jokers.
Trivia[]
- This joker is part of a set that gives strong Mult boosts for playing specific hands, which are unlocked by winning a run without playing that hand. The others are The Trio, The Family, The Order and The Tribe.
