Trivia
📚 Shooting the Moon is a term used in the popular card game Hearts for winning a hand by taking every heart card and the Queen of Spades. Normally these cards give you points - which you aim to avoid in Hearts as lowest scorer wins - but if you can take all of them your opponents get hit with a points penalty instead. It is a risky play to attempt as missing just one card ruins the attempt and will cause you to take a lot of points.
📚 The +13 mult refers to the Queen of Spades in Hearts being 13 points.
