Sam & Max: Season 1 Hints

How do I win Indian Poker?

  • 1 of 9: Well, you can't win it with brains, luck, or persistence. You need to use the same kind of method Leonard is using:
  • 2 of 9: Cheat!
  • 3 of 9: Watch what Leonard does when he plays. He puts the card on his forehead, then he squints into the distance, then he smiles knowingly. It almost looks like he's looking in a mirror. Go to the part of the room Leonard is looking at to see what's over there.
  • 4 of 9: When you're standing on the red carpet in the entrance, look up. The clown's shiny red nose is extremely shiny --
  • 5 of 9: -- and you can clearly see Leonard looking at himself. So now you know how he does it. But what can we do about it?
  • 6 of 9: If you just cover the nose, he'll know that you know what he's doing and he won't play. You need to fool him into thinking his system is still working and that he has a great card, so he'll bet his whole pile. But how?
  • 7 of 9: Remember the intro of the game? Max was trying to fling a card into a hat. Do you remember what card it was?
  • 8 of 9: Go back to your office and pick up the ace of spades; it's just under Jimmy Two-Teeth's doormat.
  • 9 of 9: Come back to the casino and use the ace of spades on the clown nose. Now go play cards with Leonard again, and you'll win hands down.
