*Pitiful*. The "brain" behind this software, in the Gin Rummy option, is *horrible*. *Frequently*, my hands are not optimally parsed. For example, one time I had 5-6-7-8 of clubs, two other 8's, and four of a kind of some other denomination ... a *gin* hand! *But* the program *insisted* upon putting the 8 of clubs into the 5-6-7 run, instead of with the other two 8's, and wouldn't allow me to knock, telling me that I had 16 in deadwood. Another time I had K-Q-J-10 of hearts, two other 10's, and 6 in "deadwood" in the remaining four cards. When the AI opponent knocked with 8, I should have scored an undercut, but, instead, my 10 of hearts was grouped with the K-Q-J, instead of with the other two 10's, leaving me losing by 18! This sort of thing has happened to me about every 5 to 8 hands. I'd *never* recommend this game to *anyone*: it's *trash* which shouldn't have been published without minimal testing. Shame on Telegames for releasing this game and shame on Nintendo for approving Telegames' release of this game.

Wow... That's really surprising. I haven't played the game, but it happens to be getting extremely high reviews. Perhaps those critics aren't as familiar with the pariticular card games you cite. Hmmmm.....
