DoraLisa, welcome to you also. I see you've played several games but somehow I missed you!!

Thanks fizzbut and Christinez! I was able to get to 126 by using both of your clues. It wasn't easy though - ohhhh - that's probably why I marked it medium this morning!! LOL

Welcome txdiva! We have a lot of fun on this site! Hope you keep coming back. And if you get a chance, leave some info in your profile section so we can get to know you!! We are competitive, but as you can see, we also leave hints if we are able to!

that was fun!

Yes, Christinez, for me too. Thanks Fizz.

Phew - that sure was hard to NOT cover the 10 - but that was the key for me!! Yippee!!! I get a star Haven't had one in a loooonnnnng time

See - I know better than to give clues lol

Oh bring the 4 back down onto the 5 for the 3. Wow did I just give all the clues without being cryptic. I guess that's my hug for those needing one.

Thanks christinez. Not that I used your clues but they inspired me to look for an easier explanation and in the process I found another move. The bad news I'm not sure I've figured out an easier way to clue this. But 5 5 10 first juggle the cards to free up the 9 and 7 don't cover the 10. Good luck.

hmm - I just played all the cards as they came up - but put 9, 8 ,7. Then 5 on 6 only long enough to uncover 6 (the 3 is on the pile through all of this). Flip the pile once to play the 5, then 6 goes up- then move 6 to 7. 4 had to come down for 3. then there was some swithcing at the end to finish playing Spades and Diamonds up to 10 - only good for 129 though
