No big harm done as we just hit a grey.

I guess this means we are pretty locked in on soldier as a future guess.
If you know what I mean.

My thoughts
* JACK seems obvious since it is type of a card.
* Card PYRAMID?

Other alternatives:
* CHECK could be it, since it's terminology from poker.

My preferred order would be
JACK or {ARM} -> PYRAMID -> {TAP}


None of the words we thought of for clue HANDS seem to have relation with CARD, so likely no clue overlap between R1 and R2.

I think Jack as obv card clue.
Then arm as hands clue.

Then check or tap.
check is from poker and my favourite (bet...i suck at poker heh)
tap from magic the gathering.

But can one say cardgame in english, or do you have to use two words?

Actually. Probably not tap for the meta reasons.
Pyramid is indeed possible, but like check better

Oh wait, we can only do 3 words.
1) We could do ARM, PYRAMID, TAP to resolve any ambiguity: leave JACK for another round since it is likely red.
2) We could otherwise be safe and do JACK -> ARM -> PYRAMID, and postpone guessing final word for "hands". Although it would still leave us in ambiguity, it does get us more confirmed words meaning less likelihood of Lewwyn resorting to "unlimited" at last round.

WRITEN AFTER MOLACH POST:

Card game is two words; I don't think 'cardgame' is written together as single word in the dictionary, at least.

So JACK -> ARM -> CHECK/PYRAMID/TAP?

One argument against CHECK is... why not just use Poker?

Yeah why not poker. avoids pyramid and tap.

Meta-reason for no tap in card clue:
IF tap was our color it fit well with hand. However then he would not re-clue it again right away in round two with a 2-clue.

So I think it is pyramid.

Preferred order is Jack-arm-pyramid

I like Jack and Bank for card. I support Jack first and arm before the other card word.
