Quack Jack Game Guide!

Recommended Posts

... why am I doing this guide lol.

 

 

The idea to make this guide came as a joke/bet from @Frucht to try the game out and teach it to anyone who wants to bet on it. This guide is meant to be both a joke but actually a serious one on how to play the game and try and earn some prizes with the odds against you. Have a laugh and learn at the same time!

 

Note: IT'S VERY ADDICTIVE BUT WILL CONSUME BOTH YOUR MONEY AND YOUR SOUL. Be very wary of how much money you use on this game. I'm a fan of card games, I've played Blackjack 21 for years and many other card games (The Liar, Wolf, and many more in my mother language that I have no idea how to translate). So I kinda wanted to try out how I'd do in the casino. Shall we begin betting our odds?

 

Quack Jack, the Blackjack 21 of Pokemon!

 

To start playing Quack Jack we need to visit the Casino of any of the Pokemon regions. We can visit the casino in Celadon, the one in Goldenrod, the one in Lilycove and the one in Veilstone. To give an example on this guide, I'll start in Veilstone (Mainly, because I'm extremely lazy and I didn't feel like moving to another region).

Once inside, we can see there are two floors. We will go to the upper one. Looks nice on the outside.

 

Pro players here gambling with their odds here after having hunted pokemon for 247 hours, trolled by RNG and having gone through a rough divorce.

 

We will walk up slowly, menacingly to Jotaro and his Stand Star Platinum Shiny Psyduck (Quack Jack NPC) and the Casino Coin Seller. They look... shady. I wonder if

they're from the Pokemafia from the Detective Pikachu movie.

Once we talk to Quack Jack (Psyduck), he'll give us a few options. We can choose Yes! To play straight away. However, if what you want to do is lose all of your money, you should think twice. We'll stop, say no, thanks and turn our backs and leave this place and never come again ask him to explain us the rules, because we've come here to GAMBLE our MONTHLY pokemon salary (unless you're on Dig Spots welfare, basically).

 

I will try and go through all of these. The goal of the game is to try and pick cards until we reach the number 21 or we reach the closest possible to 21. We are given an initial card, and so does Quack Jack get one. After you get your first one and examine it, you have to choose if you want to Hit (pick another card) or Stand (stop drawing cards). We are trying to reach the number 21. However, if we go higher than 21, we lose. If Quack Jack goes over 21, he also loses.

 

So, how do we play? We first need to know the value of all cards. An Ace is worth one or eleven points, up to your choice. The cards with faces (Jack, Queen and King is this a One Piece reference are worth 10 points.). all the other cards are worth 2 to 10, as you will perfectly be able to see. (If it says two, it's worth two, or if it has two items in it, it's worth two. I think it's not hard to learn how to count to 10.)

 

We will first choose how many coins we want to bet. We can buy 50 coins to the casino coin exchanger for 250k pokedollars (as certain famous guy said, it's just a small loan of 250k pokedollars). This is extremely expensive, I'm REALLY going to regret this if I don't win, but we will try our odds. (Frucht why did I agree to trying this out for the love of god how will I feed my pokemon children with no money left from betting)

 

Now, we will bet 1 coin to start and understand how the game plays. I'll give you an example.

Quack Jack gives you your starting cards. You get your first card. You can get as a maximum 11 points with a single card (you can get an Ace, which you can use either as one or eleven points, He has a hidden card, could be anything. You can then try to hit and get as close to 21 as possible. I got a 3 in my first hand. I'm very far away from 21. I hit again. I get an 8, now I have 11 points. I decide to hit again and I get a 7, I have 18 points now. Now, I choose to stand ZA WARUDO okay, I should stop with the Jojo references. Now, the dealer shows his cards. Oh, he got 20! I lose this one. However, the next game might go the opposite way and you may win.

 

My personal advice: after 17, stand. It's a safe bet, and most times, Quack Jack would normally lose. 18 or 19 is already a strong enough number and the chances to get 21 are really against you.

 

What happens if you hit exactly 21? Well, you Quack Jack. If you Quack Jack, you instantly win and win a bigger reward. Hitting 21 is the dream. However, it's not optimal, because our goal is to hit atleast 18 to 19, where our mathematical odds will benefit us more. We have to try and win by getting more points than that goddamn blue painted Psyduck, not try to risk it all and end up losing our savings or something else which we will not specify as it would be pretty, pretty terrifying.

 

Before you start playing, I highly recommend you watch this youtube video which also applies to the Quack Jack (without the Psyduck, though).

 

 

It will probably guide you a lot. Now, I'll start trying it out as an example! (Frucht I swear to god I am going to waste 250k for a forum guide are you kidding me lmao)

I start up good, the dealer gets a really bad starting hand (just a 2, while I get a 10). This means he has to take many cards to try and reach 21. I got a 10 and 3, so I get 13, and I feel safe enough to bet and get to 21. I'm going to hit Hit and try my luck!

ARE YOU KIDDING ME THIS IS RIGGED, I'M GOING FOR ANOTHER ROUND I AIN'T LETTING THIS BLUE MIDGET GO AWAY WITH MY MONEY.

THIS IS BUSTED WHAT IN THE WORLD HE JUST GOT A QUACK JACK IN HIS STARTING HAND HOLY MOLY THIS GUY HAS ARCEUS TIER RNG

I start with a 17. This is my time to shine! I try out to Stand and... I get Quack Jacked again. Mother of GOD this guy's luck is insane.

 

Jokes aside, it's perfectly possible to win in this game. You only have to BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF THE CARDS, KAIBA, MY GRANDPA'S DECK HAS NO PATHETIC CARDS, KAIBA! be lucky enough and win a few times through maths and logic and being lucky (I thought the NPC was rigged at first lol).

 

Now, we will try and see what we can buy with our single point we obtained from this (yes, I wasted 250k FOR A SINGLE CASINO POINT. This guide is being expensive.)

We will go down and visit the Casino Points Exchanger and check out the options.

As you can see, the Pokemon tab has some insanely rare and amazing pokemon to try and obtain them.

 

Your other alternative is to try out and buy some items with these points. I only suggest spending them on Focus Sashes, I do not personally thing the others are worth it enough.

 

I hope you've learned something with this guide. I had a ton of fun wasting 250k pokedollars down the drain because of a discord joke and a stupid bet of a friend to see if I could make an entire guide in less than two hours playing QuackJack and I hope you try it too! And have better luck than me, too. It is a worthwhile addiction and hobby to do if you're so reach that you use 500.000 pokedollar bills as socks or as a pillow to sleep on. There's a daily limit to playing this game because I actually got so good at it that I started winning more than 80% of my games and it would otherwise be incredibly busted.

 

I guess now I have to go back to making serious guides lmaoo
