first game fun, and much to learn. Its nice to read the comments from others..which has turned solitaire into a much more complicated game than I thought. I wish I understood how you know when to not play something which seems like it should be played.

Alex&Max - I never "met" him, but I did enjoy his particular brand of juvenile sick humor.
This was a challenging game.

Thank you, PaBaldy! I guess that did it! I had tried leaving the 4 in the deck but played up the 3 and didn't bring the 2 down until after the second flip which added on two extra moves that you avoid by doing it your way. Or something like that . . . ! Thanks much!

I can’t promise but I finally brought down the 2 on the 3 and left the 4 in the deck to be brought straight down later Good luck

Cunningstunt, John Belushi, no kidding! This happens to me a lot - I get within a couple of moves of the lowest score and can't figure out how to do it.

i took almost 5 minutes to do this and was still ahead of 20 people. hysterical.

What am I doing wrongggghhhh!!! ?

AlexandMax - I lived in Elk Grove Village for 2 years before leaving for Chicago. My parents moved out of city in my senior year of HS and I found The Cellar in Arlington Heights as soon as I got a drivers license. I took art classes at A HS in 1968 and there met a guy who could eat flies and get them to come out his nose - alive. His name was John Belushi.

Thanks, Donna! I'm doing all of those things. I guess I'm just really thick today.

Js first.. K plays up at the end. 7s first..but bring down 7s later. 7 moves right away to the red 8 that's down and you have two spaces open.. for both the Ks and the Ks.. Ks plays up if I remember correctly
