@cubbielover: Whoa that's a lot of golds! Maybe I would have more golds if I focused on a single deck at a time like you said I've been cycling through the decks I'll fire up a run and that's the run then I'll move to the next deck.

My current highest is blue deck and I'm trying to get the black stakes. I actually do love this game but I am bad at it. I did just get my first 1 mil+ hand the other day, so proggies made!

Edit: Listening to Fire Escape GOTY and they just voted a joker I've completely ignored as their best joker of the year and now I gotta go check it out.

@cyrusraven: I know myself, and I know I need to focus on one deck at a time. If I do that, I do a better job focusing on the strategy needed for that deck. Of course when I am stuck on a certain stake for a REALLY long time, I change decks just to keep myself from going insane. (I also want to do the last challenge (the jokerless run), but that one had stumped me for a long time, so I moved onto getting gold stakes on each deck)

@chamurai: I just listened to the Fire Escape opinion on the joker, and the joker they picked is a terrible joker in later stakes. The shortcut joker is by far the one that has carried me the most because straights updates are the most powerful when it comes to planet cards.

@cubbielover: The shortcut joker has burned me in the past so I mostly avoid it now but I think it may be because I wasn't really thinking about my deck as much as I should have been. My best runs have been focusing on high card or two-pair and working with a hanging chad joker with the hiker joker. With some x1 multiplier jokers too.

The hiker joker is one that I love, but I feel like it never gets me far. It might be my "favorite" of ones I don't use much.

All oranges except for my Black deck gold only two more rotations to go!
