I want everyone's 5 cents on how to spend money in this game. Any tips you've noticed on how to spend your money better and maximise value?

Like minds bruh, I said something similar in [ Art of the one hand ]

Difference being I save up till I find something really worth buying, sometimes I end up spending after the first blind, sometimes till the boss blind.


Also a bit related, I like to think of hands balanced out by interest. So I can forego two hands if I have 10 bucks, 3 at 15, and so on. Point of this is you don't need to have a powerful build, you instead should go for the best build; so don't just buy every decent joker you see, once you have an idea work towards fleshing that out.

I'm a bit conservative for the most part, but sometimes I can be a rash spender, just depends on the circumstances.

Edit: I don't only balance my hands out by interest, if I have a way to make money during a round I can play a dummy hand to rake in profit
