Turtle Bean is an Uncommon Effect Joker that initially provides +5 Hand Size, but decreases by 1 every blind until it destroys itself, indicated by the word "Eaten!" appearing under the Joker, after which it has bean and gone.
Synergies[]
Decks[]
Any deck can benefit from Turtle Bean, especially on Gold Stake.
Poker Hands[]
Any 5-card hand can benefit from Turtle Bean. In particular, the extra hand size makes finding matching cards for high-value hands, like Straight Flush or Flush Five, much easier.
Jokers[]
If your goal is huge hand sizes, then:
Juggler: +1 hand size.- Troubadour: +2 hand size, at the cost of -1 hand per round.
Turtle Bean in particular synergizes with:
- Throwback: Since Throwback benefits from skipping blinds, this extends the life of Turtle Bean.
- Since Turtle Bean allows larger hand sizes, any joker that provides in-hand bonuses will benefit, like Baron, Shoot the Moon, or Reserved Parking.
Note that the increased Hand Size from Turtle Bean also applies to Tarot and Spectral packs. Thus, because the 
Ouija and 
Sigil Spectral cards convert every card in your hand, having a large hand size because of Turtle Bean makes them substantially more powerful.
Blinds[]
- If Crimson Heart disables Turtle Bean, the hand size will return to normal but current hand will stay intact until the next discard (ex: 13/8). By quitting to Main Menu and returning, the hand size actually permanently increases (ex: 13/13), giving players a permanent hand size upgrade.
Trivia[]
- The black turtle bean is the only type of turtle bean. It is used in Latin American and Indian cuisine, to name a few.
- The turtle bean is often just referred to as a black bean in some areas.
- This Joker is part of the group of "Consumable" Jokers that decrease with usage. The other Jokers in this group are Ice Cream, Popcorn, Seltzer and Ramen.
