Can make a straight with 4 cards, and add a 5th card for a 4 card flush (if matching 3 in the straight) to get 'straight flush' bonus Four Finger Joker.
Same, I've yet to play cause I want to go into it fresh with the full release, I saw their sneak peek live stream and my concerns about it getting repetitive fast were unfounded, they put in a nice amount of content.
For anyone curious, the best hand to one-shot the first blind is a Full House. Any combination that gives 35+ chips gets you to 300. This means 3 10-chip cards wins with all but a secondary two, and the lowest you can go with a secondary 10-chip is 5’s. Primary aces always win, but secondary aces work the same as 10-chips The next best is a high straight, because high flushes are harder without deck manipulation. The lowest card in the straight can only be an 8, otherwise there aren’t enough chips.
Four fingers can make a straight flush with a separate straight and flush. Any 4 cards in a order and any 4 of the same suit in a scoring hand becomes a straight flush. For example: {2D, 7D, 8D, 9D, 10C} becomes a straight flush.
For a man who plays flush builds half the time, you'd think recognizing straight flushes instead of discarding them wouldn't be such a leap in skill requirement.
They should put in an NL card that spawns in if player has trousers where, NL, wearer of trousers, causes trousers to increment when playing a Flush hand and since he's wearing them it still takes up one slot
I feel like NL really doesn't get the economy. He refuses to buy +4 mult when it would probably let him win the next two combats with 1 less hand, and then the sell makes it worthwhile. Even with interest taken into consideration, you're probably losing one dollar for the security of having +4 mult for as long as you need it, which can help you significantly for the first two antes at least and enable you to take other risks that might pay off.
Why does he hate the face cards so much? He always wants to get rid of kings over 2. This might be one of those games where I just need to sit back and pog up
This man had straight flushes pouring out of his ears and literally forgot he had four fingers like his whole build wasn't centered around that joker, make it make sense.
Look… I thought you figured it out before. With four fingers straight flushes become very common. Youre not looking at it right. You can have 3,4,5♦️ and a 6♣️ then add any other diamond for example 8♦️ and it will be a straight flush. So with the 5 cards you can play, as long as any 4 of them form a straight and any 4 of them form a flush, it will be a straight flush. Hope that helps
Hey NL, idk if you knew this but you can right click to unselect all cards in your hand so you don’t gotta unselect them manually and sometimes miss or whatever love the content thanks for uploading :)
with 4 fingered hand if you get a strait with a seperate card that gives you a flush so if you have 4 diamonds and a strait even if the 2 dont perfectly overlap that is a strait flush
Look everyone is on about the straight flushes but no one mentions he talks about getting a joker for coasting and then passes up on the $3 "+4 Mult" joker.
Idk if this is correct but with four fingers you can make straight flushes without it actually being one. For example, 3 ♤ 4◇ 5◇ 6◇ 9◇ would be a straight flush. Plz someone correct me if im wrong
Am I crazy or are the vouchers that give you +1 hand size or discard really good? I feel like the extra cash you get or extra hand thinning makes runs so much easier... I never see NL grab them so I'm worried I'm trolling myself by not going for them
Bro doesn't understand you can score a straight flush with Four Fingers with 2 different sets of 4 cards (example: 10 of Spades , 7 of Spades , 6 of Spades , 5 of Spades , 4 of Diamonds) ...
I'm surprised at how much having the cam window over the score ruined the suspense. I guess it's hard to get excited when you don't know how it's going.
How much is local thunk paying him to throw so people play themselves 😭😭 I’ve already been playing the game a lot and would buy it twice cause of all these misplays 😅also cams gotta be middle right please 😢
Bro really covered the score the whole video
Dude, he had a rare joker selected to sell for 3/4ths a video recently, drove me insane.
Lol, he’s the most enjoyable and frustrating to watch at the same time.
He can't help it, it's on his blood.
Most enjoyable egghead there is :D
Bro had a rough game for sure, I never saw a score over 3 digits.
It's funny to see how he is constantly looking at the recording yet can't notice that he is covering the score
Fishing for straight flushes while discarding straight flushes 🥚

He's done it before, egg might be too cracked and leaking a little yolk cause he has a hard time remembering what he learns
Egg discovered this synergy very early in Balatro, guess he's cracked.
@39:25 "You can see it for yourself" See WHAT, Eggman? Your glorious dome is covering the score!
My man has number-blindness, he only sees suits
Disagree, he also cannot see suits. Otherwise, he wouldn't miss so many flowerpot-boosted full houses and straights
I'm convinced this is a troll. Cam over score while he rails on about fishing for straight flushes and discarding like 20 of them.😂
Yeah, he's mentioned twitch is his moneymaker so I don't think it's for engagement. Maybe he just wants to spite the flush crowd
It's truly incredible to see him "fishing for a straight flush" while holding a straight flush in his hand... like 10 different times in one run
Hey Ryan you should consider high contrast mode in the settings, makes the suits much clearer at a glance, keep pogging.
can't wait for the full release of this game
Same, I've yet to play cause I want to go into it fresh with the full release, I saw their sneak peek live stream and my concerns about it getting repetitive fast were unfounded, they put in a nice amount of content.
Yup me too! I'm buying it asap I can't wait to play it with everything available.
Can't wait to see you in a pretty dress 😉
Hold onto that Jack my friend.
@@avebave6550 bro what
I am SPEEDING in the fast lane of becoming a Type A chatter
him forgetting the straight flush trick with four fingers despite using it months ago...
He used it in the last video
it's a video game bro
45:30 what is a four of a kind if not a two pair persevering? 🥺
16:50 the man really discarded a flowerpot full house, and got redeemed by the wildcard and just didn't even notice
Seeing both trousers slowly increment is like me and my best bud watching NL play Balatro.
For anyone curious, the best hand to one-shot the first blind is a Full House. Any combination that gives 35+ chips gets you to 300.

HE MADE FULL HOUSE STRAT WORK WE'RE SO POGGED
@11:39 most true words the egg has ever spoken
This was recorded a while back clearly. They nerfed the popcorn at some point to be -4 per round instead of -2.
Approximately Feb 6th judging by his intro
I am going to become the holographic devious Joker because Eggman is covering the score and discarding all the straight flushes
If anyone is wondering, with four finger you can get a straight flush with 2♦️ 3♦️ 4♠️ 5♦️9♦️
add shortcut shiz gets crazy
HOW does that work
@@fujster well you get a flush with the four diamond, and a straight with 2 3 4 5
You ever just wish you could just sit down with the streamer, one on one, and politely show them how a Joker works?
Four fingers can make a straight flush with a separate straight and flush. Any 4 cards in a order and any 4 of the same suit in a scoring hand becomes a straight flush. For example: {2D, 7D, 8D, 9D, 10C} becomes a straight flush.
Me watching NL skip 7 straight flushes: NOOOOOO YOU FOOL
Selling hologram Bc it’s not doing anything for him and then immediately buying standard packs for the next several shops I’m so pogged up rn
If anyone is wondering, the "s" in "Gros Michel" is silent
Ryan asking for chat's feedback as if he started the video with "slash marker"
I love this game with all the thought that goes into a play.
watching that first run made me lose more sanity than a don't starve character
20:30 ~ ish he throws away a straight flush 😂 after saying how great it would be to have it
Not being able to see the score in a score driven game is a choice.
For a man who plays flush builds half the time, you'd think recognizing straight flushes instead of discarding them wouldn't be such a leap in skill requirement.
Covering the score? ❌️
Testing our math skills? ✅️
This game turned me type A
i dont want to be a type a chatter but i also want to see the score
Gotta increment my trousers, cos I'm lookin like a fool with my pants on the ground
42:02 he's pogged
Straight/Flush builds are the Guppy Boss Rush of Balatro.
and I'm loving it.
They should put in an NL card that spawns in if player has trousers where, NL, wearer of trousers, causes trousers to increment when playing a Flush hand and since he's wearing them it still takes up one slot
They have NL card. It's called egg. It's literally a reference to nl
I feel like NL really doesn't get the economy. He refuses to buy +4 mult when it would probably let him win the next two combats with 1 less hand, and then the sell makes it worthwhile. Even with interest taken into consideration, you're probably losing one dollar for the security of having +4 mult for as long as you need it, which can help you significantly for the first two antes at least and enable you to take other risks that might pay off.
Bro can't disambiguate a straight flush into a hand that contains a straight and a flush
Sir. A second pair of trousers have been incremented
Brother wild card counts as Queen of spades
Why does he hate the face cards so much? He always wants to get rid of kings over 2. This might be one of those games where I just need to sit back and pog up
egg loses to the fish pt 53
my man's even got backlog, this game's going to the moon
Watching this man get gifted a million straight flushes, but miss almost all of them.
joker providing flat +4 mult: I sleep
joker providing +4 mult to spades: I WAKE
bro really undervalues polys and negatives!
This man had straight flushes pouring out of his ears and literally forgot he had four fingers like his whole build wasn't centered around that joker, make it make sense.
Bro does not know how Four Fingers works
38:17 Rapid supply of +2's.
NL can't figure out straight flushes with four fingers
NL should try a flush build sometime. i heard they're pretty good

Isnt your chat telling you this? Are you throwing for content? Whats happening
@@iMrReMemberThis video was made for RUclips specifically, and he never reads RUclips comments. He's probably just zoned out and needs a video
@@iMrReMemberPlus this vid is from Feb 6th
"I think you just gotta not be stupid" are you trying to put me outta work brother? I make my living answering stupid questions.
Hey NL, idk if you knew this but you can right click to unselect all cards in your hand so you don’t gotta unselect them manually and sometimes miss or whatever
love the content thanks for uploading :)
29:20 Is that the MALF face on the sneak peek?
39:29
No. No I cannot see it for myself. I haven’t been able to see it for myself the whole video XD
Nice to see a run that gets there but doesn't score 500 trillion points.
with 4 fingered hand if you get a strait with a seperate card that gives you a flush so if you have 4 diamonds and a strait even if the 2 dont perfectly overlap that is a strait flush
-2 on chat for not pointing out that he discarded a straight flush while digging for a straight flush
This is a fresh video for RUclips, not a stinky twitch vod. I swear it to you
@@japplebarry5627 It's still -2
Nl if you have a 4 card straight and a 4 card flush it counts as a straight flush you threw away like 4 straight flushes
Did NL get a new cam or change his setup? Mans is lookin CRISP
Crazy how many times he has failed that boss in the same exact way. Trying to fish for nonsense (Already had it) and wastes all discards
saw a reddit post confused abt the references to the angry pumpkin video
Where's the fucking architect mate, we were meant to meet at the top of the escalator
huh, kept the camera there the whole time, interesting choice.
Four of a kind covers 2 pair
This feels like an April fools joke, except it's not April 1st.
thx for the vid
NL needs to figure out that a straight and a flush with 4 fingers = a straight flush...
Look everyone is on about the straight flushes but no one mentions he talks about getting a joker for coasting and then passes up on the $3 "+4 Mult" joker.
It's like free 70-300 chips per ANY hand in the early game, it can get you there in a pinch
Also, it pays for itself quick, bcoz you use less hands
Idk if this is correct but with four fingers you can make straight flushes without it actually being one. For example, 3 ♤ 4◇ 5◇ 6◇ 9◇ would be a straight flush. Plz someone correct me if im wrong
that's right
This game is awesome
Flush build nation!
Am I crazy or are the vouchers that give you +1 hand size or discard really good? I feel like the extra cash you get or extra hand thinning makes runs so much easier... I never see NL grab them so I'm worried I'm trolling myself by not going for them
I just got a 5 million point hand which is my record so far.
having your face on mid left sucks.. it covers the values in hands
Bro doesn't understand you can score a straight flush with Four Fingers with 2 different sets of 4 cards (example: 10 of Spades , 7 of Spades , 6 of Spades , 5 of Spades , 4 of Diamonds)
...
He knows now. This video was recorded before that point. (popcorn is pre-nerf)
Egg said straights so many times I thought this was Fox News
+2
Dude really didn't use pirate joker to get a mult of 20plus with the two polychrome jokers
I'm surprised at how much having the cam window over the score ruined the suspense. I guess it's hard to get excited when you don't know how it's going.
Did the devs change the way that you can get straight flushes with 4 fingers or did NL just miss a ton of straight flushes this vid?
nah Enelle's just an idiot
Does NL not know how interest gold works?
did i miss the plot? why is he not rolling more in shops 😭
Captain America: Winter Soldier ruined my straight potential
Hi there I'd like to order None Score with Left Ryan, please :O)
Man really put his face cam in the worst spot
I CANNOT wait for NL to cover the score with his face cam in the full release of the game
I can't see the screen. All I see is a Egg.

WHY MUST YOU COVER THE GOODS!!!! WE WANT THE SCORE NOT YOUR EYE PORS!
How much is local thunk paying him to throw so people play themselves 😭😭
