      I’ll have $4 left in the shop, and it’ll be arcana Vs celestial boosters

      I’ll pick the arcana just because it might have the wheel that might give me a result

        3 in 22 chance,followed by 1 in 4 chance,which is msot likely to give 50 extra chips.

        vs 3 in 9 chance of a chips + mult boost.

    Once it worked 4 times in a row for me. So now I never expect it to work ever again.

    It worked the first time I did it and I’ve been chasing my losses since then.

    I counted and it took no less than 15 tries before it ever worked for me. Ever since then then my rates have improved but I’m still highly skeptical of the “1 in 4” written on the card.

    Hello I don’t play balatro but wasn’t this community just complaining about the game getting an 18+ rating for promoting gambling?

    Just look at these comments lol.

      I mean… that’s a pretty weird take. Most games have some sort of RNG - whether it be in the background or visibility listed probabilities. That doesn’t mean they’re promoting gambling.

      The outrage over the 18+ rating was partially over other games with actual gambling (monetized loot boxes) are somehow PG / PG-13.

      Meanwhile, this game with no in-game purchases and is only thematically about “Poker” is 18+ because it’s “promoting gambling”… If the game had an artwork swap they’d see it as a typical deck building rougelite and rate it the same as Slay the Spire.
