About this converter

Balatro sets a fixed chip target for each ante on White Stake. The Small blind score defines the ante base. Ante 1 asks 300, Ante 2 asks 800, Ante 3 asks 2000 and Ante 4 asks 5000. Late antes climb hard. Ante 5 asks 11000, Ante 6 asks 20000, Ante 7 asks 35000 and Ante 8 asks 50000. That makes Ante 8 near 167 times Ante 1. Inside each ante, Big asks 1.5 times base and Boss asks 2 times base. So Ante 1 Big asks 450 and Boss asks 600, while Ante 2 Big asks 1200 and Boss asks 1600. All rows pin White Stake bases.

How to use it

Pick two antes and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first ante target, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total chips. Try Ante 8 against Ante 1 to see the 50000 to 300 climb, then Ante 2 Boss against Ante 1 Small.

This table tracks ante level targets, while the blind values page tracks each blind variant across antes. Green Stake and higher multiply these White Stake bases, so higher stakes stay out. Special bosses break the 2 times rule: The Wall asks 4 times and Violet Vessel asks 6 times. Endless mode past Ante 8 scales further and stays out of rows.

Do Big and Boss always scale 1.5x and 2x?
