Shoot The Moon - Hearts

[Stinkerbell]

Okay, there MUST be a trick to getting this... I got 1 of 3 Shoot The Moon's right away but I've been playing on and off for a few days, MOSTLY ON and haven't gotten another one.  Any ideas??

[harley89]

I keep resetting the game till I get enough high cards to win the quenn of spades and enough high hearts to take them all. Takes awhile to get it though, Took me several hours

[jeffy]

there is a trick to it

the only options i use is:
hearts or queens on the first trick - checked
display points taken by each player - checked
then check the box that says end round if scoring is determined (TRAM)

ok like the poster said above i just leave and come back into the game until i get at least 5+ hearts make sure you have at least 3 high cards. YOU MUST HAVE THE ACE along with 2 other highs like a king, 10 or jack queen for example and at least a couple other semi high cards like an 7, 8, 9 one or 2 of them. OK HERE IS THE TRICK you dont need every high/face card because what you do is try and take the first trick played if you have a hand like i said before another example would be 7,9,J,Q,A or 7,8,10,Q,A the trick is take the first trick if possible then immediatly lead your ace of hearts from what i found from doing this a lot (ive got like 5 ppl bades on here in less than an hour) the cpu players will toss out their highest hearts than you can just keep leading on down the line and take every trick. when 1 cpu player is out of hearts it will toss out the queen of spades so you will shoot the moon this is very easy once you understand what im saying i hope i didnt confuse ya. Be careful also if you have the queen of spades take the first trick then lead your ace of hearts then i would lead the queen and the cpu players should let you take it then continue leading the hearts.

Your other option is PM ME and ill get it for ya quick lol

Hope this helps some

That is one that I didn't get I was afraid I wouldn't be able to do it, even though I did the weekly one time that we had to do it once.
