We're playing Accordion, we're down near the end of the hand, the tableau is very small,
we only have six stacks going. And look at this! We've got a whole lot of likeness going
on here. We can play these clubs together; we go from six to five. We can play the queen
of spades on top of the Ace of spades, on top of the three of spades, exciting, we're
down to three. And, we can play the queen of hearts on to this other queen, that gives
us two and we're out of plays. The cards do not match in suit nor rank, and this is a
busted tableau. You have two stacks. Our score is two. And the point here is, that a good
score in the game of Accordion is two, or three, or four. But, if you can get down to
two or three, you had yourself a very good hand and you should smile and you should know
th at you can get close and you can win. You can get very close to winning, and it's not
that hard to win, and you'll see what it takes to do it.
