Maverick's Solitaire is a unique solitaire game based on poker hands, inspired by an episode of the 'Maverick' TV show. The game also appeared in an episode of 'Alias Smith and Jones'.
What are the odds of arranging 25 random cards into 5 named poker hands? Better than 80% — but that last hand will make you sweat.
Here's how it works:
• The deck is shuffled
• The first 25 cards are dealt into 5 hands
• Rearrange the cards until every hand is a named hand:
• Royal Flush
• Straight Flush
• Four of a Kind
• Full House
• Flush
• Straight
• Three of a Kind
• Two Pair
• Pair
High Card doesn't count as a named hand — if it did, you'd win every time, and where's the fun in that?
