Brian can still buy a platinum.

Technically false because TR, as worded, forces you to play the Poor House twice, each one giving -$5.

But it says it can't bring you down below 0, right?

Down to a minimum of 0$.

Than you play 9 coppers. 0 + 9 = 9.

Oops.  Right, the copper haven't been played yet.

Getting too antsy with the possibility of -$. :P

Lol, I forgot about the Coppers.

I guess it isn't as bad as I thought.
And I'm glad to see others misunderstood this as much as I did.  ;D

Well, I'm glad I posted it so we got this sorted out.

Chocolate is like victory points in Dominion. Both taste good but they'll hurt you if you eat too much of it instead of something else in your early days.

Isn't there a risk of schemes blocking golems in the combo ? I mean, if you've one golem + one scheme in hand, if your golem immediately draws scheme + CH (or without discarding the whole of your deck), it is blocked, right ?

Scheme both Golems every turn.

Can anyone tell me why the picture I posted is so small compared to the other ones? Is there any code I can add to make it larger?

Nitpick: Reacting with two Fool's Gold at once shouldn't be very smart in most cases anyway - after all, you dispense with (at least) $5 of buying power this turn... 8)

Hello.  Name's Bruce.  It's all right.  I understand.  Why trust a shark, right?

Is quite curious - Who is the mystical "Celestial Chameleon"?

If you have 5 FG in hand, you have at least half the FGs, and you should definitely NOT do the Reaction for them.

Why not? 5 FG is a single Province buy. Gold provides $1 less than an activated FG, is more consistent, and $9 today and Gold-Gold-3x??? tomorrow is a great position for consecutive Provinces. The only thing that might give you pause is if you're in a Colony game.
