Can you always win solo?

Post by Romain672 »

Hi,
Let's assume the devil is next to you and he controls the cards of the deck and see your actions.
Can you survive one turn if devil try to make you lose?

If the answer is no, same question with Pineapple enabled.

Solo mode scoring rule has been changed. From now on, only royalties score in solo.

But even with the new scoring. Yes you can 100% win all the time if you play boringly bad (never risking a foul). Barry Greenstein (famous poker player) said you cannot win in OFC (multiplayer game) if you are too safe never fouling. He said fouling 15% of the time is about right to have a chance to win. That is about 1 foul every 6 rounds. I think the solo mode should allow 1 foul as the current implementation kills the spirit of the game. At the moment if you never take a risk, you will always win, it could take 20 rounds but you will win.
