Multiplier Stacking
When your winning hand contains multiple Lightning Cards, their multipliers multiply together. This creates the potential for massive wins:
1 Card
2x - 8x
2 Cards
4x - 64x
3 Cards
8x - 512x
Maximum
512x
(8x × 8x × 8x)
Multiplied Payouts Example
Player Win - No Lightning
$100 bet on Player, Player wins
Win: $100 × 0.8 = $80 (after 20% fee)
Player Win - 1 Lightning Card (4x)
$100 bet on Player, Player wins with 4x Lightning Card
Win: $100 × 0.8 × 4 = $320
Tie Win - 3 Lightning Cards (8x × 4x × 2x)
$100 bet on Tie, Tie wins with three Lightning Cards
Win: $100 × 4 × 64 = $25,600
