The multiplier in game info only applies to the hand played. Otherwise every hand would trigger also high card multipliers. For example flush house would trigger flush house, full house, flush, threes, pair, two pair and high card and that would be broken.
The hand being played is shown on the left under the multipliers.
Makes sense. I wasn't sure because Two-Pair also procs individual Pair jokers too even though it's a "Two"-Pair
Jokers usually have wording like "contains a Pair". Two Pairs contains a Pair but isn't a Pair itself
The most frustrating one is that 4 of a kind does not trigger two pair
I believe two pairs is specifically stated to be of different ranks, like full house. Otherwise 5 of a like and flush 5 would trigger full house
No, when you play something like two pair or a full house you don't get the base value of the one pair.
But if you have a joker that says +chips/+multi of played hand contains a pair than yes, it will give the value of the Joker when when playing a full house or two pair.
Even a flush will do that if you have pair in hand. Example all spade's with two nines.
