Intended. Four fingers lets you get away with all kinds of shenanigans. Combine with shortcut for some truly weird hands qualifying for straight flush

So this is the real straight flush build, I see

Add smeared joker for an even dumber build

So hear me out, even better, checkered deck...
That's it, that's the pitch

Four Fingers straight flush doesn’t have to mean the straight is flush
LodeMike@lemmy.today · 15 pts · 1y
More specifically: the game checks if the cards are a straight, and they are a flush. If both are true then its a straight flush.
There's another check for royal flush that's also independent.

Even more specifically, there are two separate hands that are being treated as one. This may or may not be a bug, but it is what's happening.
The four heart cards form a flush: K, 6, 5, 4
The 4 contiguous cards form a straight: 6, 5, 4, 3
Both are true, and thus it is being considered a Straight Flush.
I'm curious if this is true without the Four Fingers joker.

I don't think you could test that without four fingers because you would need a 6 card hand?

Is flush. Is straight. Is straight flush!

6543 - Straight
K654 - Flush
That's why you have a Straight Flush :)

K654 is the straight flush, all hearts. The 3 is not taking a part on this
