MS-Solitaire

anyone know the highest possible score when dealing one card at a time? I think I've come close with scores over 5000.

I love MS-Solitaire. When all other modern video games fail me and my system is overloaded due to the heavy graphics, I can always depend on this game to satisfy my gaming craving while actually exercising my brain. I often play this before or on breaks from coding to get my brain back in logical shape.

the score in the game is usually not much but when you win and the cards flood the screen you get a massive bonus.

My average on tri-card is about 4330

sometimes you can not win if you put them on the Aces too soon -- might have to take some back off.

I read somewhere that the third game you play is always winable. So, after starting the game select menu item Game-->Deal twice.

I used to play for high score until the vista version started keeping win statistics, which changed my playing strategy. I never played timed games because I usually play while doing other things and a game can take a long time. I play one card and my winning percentage has stayed at 46% for close to 3000 games and I was wondering if that is as high as you can get. BTW -- just played my first timed game and scored over 5000
