Turned up card invariably favors the computer hand
Re: Turned up card invariably favors the computer hand
The statistics in my last comment are wrong . They should read : Computer won 245 , I won 217 .
Re: Turned up card invariably favors the computer hand
I have come to the conclusion that the 'turned up card,' (the starter) favours neither the computer nor the human player. I have won the majority of games I have played against the computer. Either I live a charmed life (I don't), I'm a better 'player' than the computer (we are about even), or my computer is having an illicit love affair with the GrassGames computer (the only plausible explanation.)

Re: Turned up card invariably favors the computer hand
When i started playing i would have aggreed that it did seem to favour the computer but after playing hours at it this is not always the case. As one of the players recommended, if you check your stats you would be surprised to see that it is not the computer winning all the time.
I love this game and play it for hours. My only problem is that i cannot connect online to others (sob).
Enjoy everyone

Re: Turned up card invariably favors the computer hand
I have to agree with the players saying that the computer has favorable hands.
The computer plays hands game after game after game...that the chances would be astronomical to have those hands...game after game after game !!
If I could win 1 game out of every 25....I would be happy.
Great game,great interface, smooth play, BUT you just want to punch your computer ! May be it is a coding error or deliberate work, but those hands are just simply CAN NOT called luck for the computer or bad luck for me !!
A fix (or easy-medium and hard game choices ) would be nice so people actually could enjoy this great game.

Re: Turned up card invariably favors the computer hand
By the way WOO........
If your stats are so close to the computers...(almost as many wins as the computer).......why are you saying this....."The issue is that the turned up card almost invariably improves the computer's hand and rarely mine ."
Looks like it doesn't really matter what the computer is getting. (according to your stats)

I've added some info on this here:

It will hopefully clear things up a bit.

Re: Turned up card invariably favors the computer hand
I have now played 584 games of Cribbage . The computer has won 289 and I have won 295 .
My earlier observation of the turned-up card invariably favouring the computer's hand has now proved to be wrong . The game is not flawed . There can be long runs of good or bad luck just as the creator of the game has maintained all along .
