   Screen Shots

In the example shown below, there are 4 valid plays (highlighted with a yellow box around them) that can currently be played.  As one of the examples below shows, you can make a play and score points using the four adjacent 10's: you would LEFT click once on each of the 10's, then RIGHT click anywhere to make the play.  The 10's will then automatically be removed, and any cards above them will drop down to fill in the holes.

Thus, as you become a more strategic player, you will not only identify hands that can be played, but you will visualize what other hands might be made once you have made a play.

Never give up!!!  The game isn't over until all valid plays have been executed -- and the computer will conveniently let you know if that has happened.  If you really get stuck, there are clever hints available.

For quick, easy reference, valid poker hands with their values are presented at the bottom of the screen.  You may click on any of those items at the bottom of the screen to get a definition of what makes that type of hand.


Once you have won the game, a scoreboard is displayed letting you know how many hands you created, how many cards you cleared, and how many points (including bonus points) that you scored.  As your skills improve, you will want to see if you can make different types of hands: for example, if you have already achieved getting a pair, you might want to see where you could arrange three cards together so that you will get points for getting a three of a kind.
