Let's continue now with our sample hand. We can't make any plays on the current tableau.
So we deal out another card, and again, no plays. I can't play this three or diamond,
here. And I can't play it here. So, I deal out another on the tableau. It's the Ace of
diamonds, play it right here. Again. I can play this nine of spades, 1-2-3 stacks over,
and look at that, it's nine on nine, there you go. Oh! And look! Diamonds! 1-2-3! Very
nice. Diamonds. Five of hearts, nothing. Spades! Spade, 1-2-3. Diamond, but it's four away
from another diamond. There's diamond on diamond. There's a heart, it's too close, it's not
next to a heart and it's too close to this heart to be played. So we play on. Six of
diamonds, three of hearts, oh they start coming out in different suits after another. That's
a problem! That's one way to know that you're going to lose the hand. But look at this one.
It goes, 1-2-3, diamond on diamond, and then jack on jack, play it here, and then diamond
on diamond. That's a nice move. Especially when you consider that then I can go, 1-2-3,
jack on jack. And then diamond on diamond, and then the three of hearts is beside a heart,
and did you see that? I went from eight or nine stacks down to four, and that's how this
game can change. I'm half way through the deck right now, and I'm looking forward to
a good score. I might even win. Most likely, I'm going to get a score of four or five.
Well, I wish you luck when you play Accordion and if you get a good score, drop me a line.
