This is just not how poker works. If you want this to be a (VERY niche) joker, then sure. But as a base change, this makes no sense

It's literally not a two pair. By definition...

Stone cards go against the definition of high card

stones have no rank and are an exception
polar citrus
So now exceptions are okay?
cloud gale
stone cards always score

So now exceptions are okay?
Lol are you serious
cloud gale
so yes they are an exception
polar citrus
stone cards always score
It says that nowhere in the game
cloud gale
then that should probably be added
polar citrus
I'm not saying they shouldn't, I'm saying that it's an exception and you can't always go off of purely the wording
cloud gale
because stone cards always score anyways

Intuitively, 4oak does have 2 pairs even if the game says otherwise

I agree that stone cards should have that feature listed, but this whole thing is unrelated to the fact that the two pair exception you want to make, IS listed in clear wording

two pair (the hand) has a description that pretty explicitly excludes 4oak

Seems to me like you are currently dying on the hill
Over an issue that doesn't even exist

sorry for the suggestion then ig
i guess the suggestion would be then: change the wording on 2 pair to include 4oaks, 5oaks, and flush fives.

What part of "different ranks" is not making it through here? That's the only reason two pair exists
You can't just ask localthunk to change poker rules that he didn't even create
Just to satisfy 2 jokers in the game
I'm sorry for being harsh, but this shouldn't even be a topic for debate
