HSM 197: Salt in Upkeep, Fifteen Board Wipes, and the Balatro Wagon

Welcome to Episode 197!
Today, a player in a friendly tournament keeps missing triggers which leads to tension in the group, a poorly built spite deck confuses a playgroup, and the headache of trying to track down a gift exchange deck that was never sent.
Also Sam is off the Balatro wagon and on the Balatro bandwagon. (or is it the other way around?)
Stay Salty!
Sam, Mike, & Tony
