When you eliminate someone from the game you get their cards they were holding. So when TM374 eliminated jackakas, he took control of his cards and had enough for a mid-turn cash in. When you have more than 5 cards it forces you to cash in mid-turn.

I'm not quite sure what you don't understand about it, but I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say you're wondering how he cashed in twice on the same turn.

When TM374 eliminated jackakas from the game, he took all the cards that jackakas was holding. He then is presented with the option of cashing in another set of cards, then proceeding to complete his turn.

yeah. that is a good reason to try to take people out when they have cards.

But the problem is not really the fact that he had 2 sets.
The problem is that he deployed, attacked, and DEPLOYED AGAIN.
I thought there was DEPLOYING and THEN attacking and then fortifying.

not if you get the cards from eliminating someone. at that point it makes you trade them in in the attack stage.

What he said ^^^

If you eliminate someone and end up with 5 or more cards, you are forced to cash in a set for more armies. You then HAVE to deploy those armies and continue your turn as usual, with fortifications as usual at the end of your turn.

I hope that helps explain it a bit better...?

No, not so much luck as tactics. 'He' probably went after the cards deliberately. You'll see it often. If you time it right you can cash in 3 or 4 times in a round!

Be wary!
