Incompetence Poll :)

[cweirick]

Hi all -
so I was just thinking while playuing the other day how there are some games I am really good at and win everytime and get a jackpot spin everytime I play it - and then...
well--there are the couple games that no matter how hard I try - I will NEVER get a jackpot spin ( without an AUTO that is)  - I just don't understand the games at all - or can't play it with any degree of competence..
I am REALLY bad at TUrbo 21 - am lucky to get 3 or 4    21's before timer runs out
I am also REALLY bad at BLOOP - I don't think I will ever win a game of this on my own..
and don't get me started on Perfect Pair Solotaire - cannot win a hand to save my life -
Anyone else have a game that they just don't get at all??

all the games are easy to play for me.  8)

[Torn2pieces]

Turbo takes practice. I don't even look at the colums. I just know where to lay the cards from the pile to make 21's.......

[harley89]

without a doubt I do not understand Euchre

[zo!D]

the only games that bother me, and that i hate looking at (haha) are:

Pinochle
Harvest Mania
Sweet Tooth
and
Squelchies

those games just annoy me.  thankfully theres autos, so i dont have to bother with them that much  O0 8)

For Turbo, always match up 9/2   8/3 7/4 6/5's since they make 11's and 10's come up all the time you should knock out a high score

and also, 6+7+8 = 21. I seem to get those numbers in order a lot when I played.

Turbo 21 & Euchre are my bugaboos.

[swissmissy63]

Euchre is the  >:D and Greenback Bayou is his brother!!

Pinochle! >:( lol ;D

[Libra]

I had never played Pinochle, Canasta, Euchre, or Spades before joining Pogo.  I LOVE all those games.  I've always been a big fan of card games and played a lot of Gin Rummy, Hearts, Rook, and Poker, but never any of the games above.  I LOVE them all, now.  I had also never played any of the classic games of cribbage, backgammon, or dominoes.  I like backgammon, but cribbage and dominoes can both burn in hell for all I care.  I played Turbo 21 on a video game at my local bar, so I'm good at that.  I hate the stupid-ass games like Greenback Bayou and Sweet Tooth. 

So, in a nutshell, I would say my favorite games are:

Pinochle
Canasta
Spades
Euchre
Gin
Turbo 21
Dice Derby
Penguin Blocks

My Least favorite games are:

Jigsaw Detective
Greenback Bayou
Word Jong
Cribbage
Dominoes

Gawd, I'm chatty today..

I just can't win a Tumble Bees game without an auto.

[swissmissy63]

I had never played pinochle before I joined Pogo. I actually taught myself how to play but after I got my expert badge I got lazy and I just don't play anymore. I really like it tho. But I had forgotten about Cribbage  :x I just don't get that game. . . . 

[afskitty]

I am baffled  :o  by Aces Up! I try to play and all i do is click every card until something happens I have read the how to play more then pnce and I don't get it.

[irisheyesRsmiling]

I hate cribbage--have never quite understood that game, i cant get a spin in tumble bees to save my life as well as turbo 21. :(
