      fun puzzle thanks! i incorrectly guessed the revealer would be "hand-me-downs"... i thought you had to go down one hand since the first themer i uncovered was "scared flush" --> "scared straight" (it went down in rank by one)... so i was trying to justify in my head "three-of-a-kind bond" which sounds like it could be a relationship for a throuple
