I think that one’s fair tbh because the wording on the card just says “increases to 10”. Depending on what game you’re playing it’s totally reasonable that would increase your interest from 0>10. Money was of such little concern I can’t blame him at all for not noticing he was never getting interest.

The joke is just that Eggman here is initially making many obvious mistakes that viewers may have already seen coming and would be tempted to comment about the fact that they wouldn't have fallen for 'that' issue. The egg does this because he's not thinking things through early like most gamers would have, he just guns it.

It's not like he was actively choosing to not upgrade flush five, if that shit doesn't show up, then you can't upgrade it. If there is something to get on his ass about it's not duplicating his polychrome ace because he thought it would get sucked off by the hemomancer, when polychrome is an edition and not an enhancement.

Friendly Balatro tip: There are three different modifiers that can be applied to playing cards at the same time , enhancement ( gold, bonus, lucky, etc.), paper type (foil, holo, and poly), and seals (red, gold, blue, etc.). Adding any modifier to a card that already has that modifier type (e.g., adding lucky to a bonus card, both enhancements) will replace the previous modifier with the new one. On the other hand, adding a modifier to a card that has a different modifier type will only add the new modifier and keep the old modifier (e.g., adding foil to a bonus card, adding a paper type to an enhanced card). I hope this makes sense and helps. I mainly wrote this because I saw Ryan struggling with the concept of adding enhancements to his foil aces, which would work just fine.
