    I don’t know jokers by sight yet, but there’s one that lets you do straights with gaps… So 2, 4, 5, 7, 9

    Another that counts hearts and diamond as same as club and spade as same.

    3rd allows straights and flushes to be played with 4 cards.so 7, 9, J , Q.

    8 is a skip, 10 is a skip. Ok’d by jokers. Ace isn’t counted in scoring or hand.

        But would the straight flush take priority since it’s a higher scoring hand or how is it chosen? I assume a straight flush doesn’t check for a straight and a flush.

          All 5 cards will be counted in the straight flush. It’s a straight (with one card gaps) and a flush (with 4 of the “same” suit).

            So not all cards of the straight need to be flush to be counted as a straight flush so long as there is another flush in the played hand according to Balatro’s scoring?
