Balatro Checkered Deck seeds

Checkered Deck: The deck is only Spades and Hearts, 26 of each. Two suits make Flushes easy to find from the first hand.

Every seed on this page was posted by a player who said it was a Checkered Deck seed, and we checked it on Checkered Deck. We don't list seeds here on a guess. 1 seed so far.

† after the stake means the post didn't name one, so we checked White Stake. "A1 pre-Big" is the Ante 1 shop just before the Big Blind; Ante 1 has two shops and later Antes three. Shop cards 1-2 are on display; later cards need rerolls.

All Checkered Deck seeds

Seed by seed: Antes 1-3

The first three Antes from our seed check, with the items that matter most. The full Ante 1-8 run is in our data.

Before you play

  • Pick Checkered Deck and the stake shown. Any other deck changes every shop.
  • Locked Jokers change results. We assume every Joker is unlocked.
  • Skipping a blind skips the shop after it, so follow the shop labels.
  • Gold Stake: since 1.0.1f, random-seed Gold Stake runs steer the first Legendary (SteamDB); our checks use the stake listed.
  • Seeded runs don't count toward unlocks or achievements.

How we check seeds

We work out Antes 1-8 for the posted deck and stake from the game's seed logic. A seed is verified when every item in the post title shows up in a pack, a voucher or the first few shop cards. We leave playing-card ranks in Standard Packs off, because we can't confirm them reliably. Results assume every Joker is unlocked.
