Balatro

Flush!

Is there anything to say?

Has anyone found since installing Balatro it is using battery even when you're not running it?

I noticed recently my battery has been running down a bit more than usual. I then noticed since my last charge it says Balatro has been using my battery even though I haven't played and it's not running as an app that I can close in the background.

So, I won my first run after starting this madness a few days ago. Violet Vessel thought it could raise to 300k, so I decided to kinda ‚nope-out‘ and bought a suddenly appearing Mr. Bones in my last store before Vessel. I got to 25% with just playing pairs.

Mine is Abandoned Deck because I like playing with numbered cards and feel like face cards get hosed too often

I had a Pair run and pivoted to include Two-Pair synergy too. Throughout the run, I upgraded Pair a lot (Lvl 10 or so) and Two-Pair barely. If I play a Two-Pair, does the multiplier only trigger as if I played a Two-Pair or does it also trigger the Pair multiplier? Trying to figure out it if makes sense to invest in the pants joker or if I run the risk of losing because I don't rack up enough points.

Thanks!

Edit: Ended up not going for Two-Pairs, unless I had to because of boss blinds, and got to 11/8. Pretty good :)
