When to discard a unique card

Without 5 flamboyants

• Unplayable
• Locked hand + 0 clue tokens
• Locked hand + 1 clue tokens + unique chop

Extra: Locked hand + 0 clue tokens + playable unique chop = bomb unique card as a positional misplay

With 5 flamboyants

• There is more flexibility with losing unique cards when the pick and/or play flamboyants are still available.
• Flamboyants create more complexity in decision making.
• Let's focus on the cases where you can be certain of a maximum score:
