Never played Hearts, but I've got free Solitaire, which is a bit annoying as it regularly deals hands that can't be solved, though I suppose the same would be true of a regular deck of cards.
I suspect that if I played against a person who was theoretically the same ability as me, they would wipe the floor with me, because they don't respond in the same kind of way that a computer does.

Mind you, I'm getting good at beating the phone on Checkers Free and Hearts Free.

Originally posted by zeitghostI watched the programme about Bobby Fischer.
He was weird.
And not in an altogether good way.
An antisemitic Jew.
Not a concept I'd previously encountered, I must admit, taking self hatred to new heights of lunacy.
