I have been playing on TG for many years.  I recognize many players names but have not gotten to know anyone due to the limited resources to easily make friends on this site.  When I first signed up to play at TG the first message I got was from Mr. Black himself and he called me a neighbor LOL.  It turned out that I lived in the same city as Mr. Black and the TG website.  He invited me to visit him in person after I had been a member for a while, but, unfortunately, I was in the process of moving back to my home state of Texas and never got to drop in on him.

     My first win came early in Solitaire, I played a quarter game for an $8 win.  I was so excited that I whooped and hollered for 5 minutes.  I was hooked!  My favorite feature is the First Place Scream.  I turn the volume up and let everyone in my house know that I got in First Place LOL.

     I am VERY competitive and LOVE to get in First Place!  I do not have any special Solitaire game tips because I am probably the slowest player on the site LOL, thats why I feel lucky to win.  If I give you my one and only Solitaire tip you might use it to knock me off my game LOL.  But I will admit that I like to play in Pay 5 games the most in case I can get in the race for the money but not first place.

     In Make 13 there is a perfect one on one match for every card.  But you can also click on as many cards as you need to make 13 points.  I will caution you about using more than two cards to make your points, this can cause you to have leftover, un-matachable cards at the end of game play (multiple card play is best used to clear playing field at end of round).  Game Play Hint based on two card matches:  1st: match all cards within the playing field.  2nd: match the playing field cards to the tray cards.  3rd: match the tray cards to each other to open blank slots for new cards (stacked cards are not easy to uncover).  4th: do all this as fast as you can.  Using this method allows me to clear a lot of boards and gain the bonus points which helps increase my score.

Good Luck if you are in First Place I am on a mission to take your place
