Obviously it is kind of confusing as so many even here are unsure, but honestly it seems to me it is just people not reading carefully enough.
Here is why you can be sure a 6 count is not possible here; (courtesy of Lonnie above)
Which of these two card scenarios is more likely to occur?
Yellow + Yellow = Red
Yellow + Red
If a Y+Y=R counted as 1 point + 1 point + 2 points = 4 points,
And Y+R counted as 1 point + 2 points = 3 points
Then the less likely outcome would be attracting more card points.
It would not work math wise and smart bettors would be looking to exploit it.
