Solitaire Poker is a simple and addictive card game. It is a solitaire in which poker hand scores must be obtained.

It provides large, highly recognisable cards, smooth animations and plenty of game statistics.

You can play either with your stylus or through the hardware buttons on your handheld.

It runs on all Palm OS devices, both color and black & white. Solitaire Poker is Palm OS 5 enhanced!

And, of course, it's freeware!

A brief game description follows:

Four columns are to be completed with five cards each. The goal of the game is to achieve the best poker hand in each column. The first row is filled automatically, then tap on one of the columns to place the next card. You cannot begin a new row of cards before completing the previous row. You go on until all four columns have five cards. Then your final score is calculated.

In the 'Statistics' screen the three best scores with date and time stamps, the worst score, the overall number of games played and the average score per game are shown.

Update Description:

Improved graphics, now also in high resolution (for handhelds equipped with a 320x320 screen and Palm OS 5.0 or later)

Date and time are now recorded for the three best scores in the 'Statistics' screen (suggested by Marco Scioscia)

Now you can see the best possible score by tapping on the 'Best play' button at the end of the game (suggested by sMyles)

Note: for optimum performance, this calculation is executed in native ARM code on handhelds equipped with an ARM processor and Palm OS 5.0 or later
