Trash Poker

Competitive deck-destruction game inspired by the video game Balatro. Players build and thin a standard poker deck over eight hands, discarding unwanted cards and adding special cards while competing to play the best hands. Chips are earned by winning hands and by meeting card-based scoring conditions at the end of the game. The game also includes unlockable foil joker cards that change play in future games.
