Remember, you must discard down to five instead of six.

Every time you discard a card, it gets shown to Chew, who may choose to keep it.

The clubs are Pisaro's cards. No one wants Pisaro.

Ace high flush vs potential King/7 full house is what I see

Unless I'm missing something, the best we can do with this set of cards is a flush. We could discard all but the spades, and also hope that the four shared cards give us a straight flush or royal flush (however unlikely that seems).

I agree. And between those two options I think we should go for Ace high flush, if the king of spades is one of the 4 shared cards we would have a royal flush, if not we would still have a pretty good hand.

If we go with K/7 full house we'll only have a 2 pair. Of course it's more likely for a seven or a king to be one of the 4 shared cards but we ould lose instantly if they don't appear. Also if we go with K/7 and the king of spades is one of the 4 shared cards, Ace high flush would have been the better option.

Just dropping in for a sec. Decken, what cards did you discard?

Okay, well, we're torn between diamonds and spades. Just a quick Steam/Leaf Plot
7,8,J,Q,A Sp 4,10
3,4,6,7,10,K Di 5,8
K He 2,A
Cl 2,4,7,8

Flushes:
We cannot get a Royal Flush, because the 10 of Spades was discarded.
For a Spades Straight Flush 1, we'd need 5, 6 and 9 of Spades, because the 4 of Spades was also discarded.
For a Spades Straight Flush 2, we'd need K and 2 of Spades.
The Diamond cards that were eliminated also gave us a pretty good Diamond Straight Flush.
For a Diamond Straight Flush 1, we'd need 9, J and Q.
For a Diamond Straight Flush 2, we'd need A and 2.
A Diamond Royal Flush is still possible.
Hearts and Clubs ain't shit.

Without considering anything other than flushes, Diamonds is the best bet.
If Decken comes on soon, compare eliminated cards to my results.

It took me a long time to figure out what was going on in that stem and leaf plot but now I see it. :P

Just a reminder that we are at about 6 hours in. Please try and have chosen your hand of five by the nine-hour mark.

A nine will probably come out in the shared hand... but man, the odds.

And Decken went offline, damn. He was right about not going for the Full House, though. It's a risky move.

The odds are just enough to assume that the cards weren't random. I'm going to assume an A of Spades will pop up in the final 4, or Decken's discard pile just to drive the whole 'could've gotten a Royal Flush' thing.

And it makes me think that while we have a lot of Diamonds and Spades, the Chew tribe have a lot of Clubs and Hearts, and we may have fed them a fair few cards they needed.

As is, I suggest we keep J,Q,A of Spades and 10,K of Diamonds. However, this relies on the four other cards very heavily.

If the set gets the majority vote, then we'll go with it?

I'll probably stick around until the 9 hour mark, then come back around 10-11 hours.
