Does a Two-Pair trigger the multiplier of Pair? (lemmy.zip)

I had a Pair run and pivoted to include Two-Pair synergy too. Throughout the run, I upgraded Pair a lot (Lvl 10 or so) and Two-Pair barely. If I play a Two-Pair, does the multiplier only trigger as if I played a Two-Pair or does it also trigger the Pair multiplier? Trying to figure out it if makes sense to invest in the pants joker or if I run the risk of losing because I don't rack up enough points.

Thanks!

Edit: Ended up not going for Two-Pairs, unless I had to because of boss blinds, and got to 11/8. Pretty good :)

No, when you play something like two pair or a full house you don't get the base value of the one pair.

But if you have a joker that says +chips/+multi of played hand contains a pair than yes, it will give the value of the Joker when when playing a full house or two pair.

Even a flush will do that if you have pair in hand. Example all spade's with two nines.
