·Multi-source verified (47/47)

The Small Blind in Ante 1 is very forgiving. Aim for any hand that can comfortably reach the score. A single Pair or Two Pair is usually sufficient. Use your discards to improve your hand if necessary, but don't waste them if you already have a winning hand. This is a good opportunity to see how different card combinations score and to get a feel for the game's pace. Focus on learning the UI and basic actions without pressure.
