5 of a kind Five cards of the same face value = 100 pts
Tips When trying to get the highest possible score, keep in mind the above Bonuses, but more important, follow the maximum 21's list. It is more important to keep clearing the deck, than to get the odd 'great' bonus. Sometimes you have little choice, take the bonuses as they come.
Straight The five columns total (in any lorder): (16,17,18,19, 20) = 100 pts
Bonus moves Jack and Ace Spades = 50 pts
Two black Jacks in a row = 50 pts
The object of the game is to play the current face up card into one of the five columns in order to get that column's sum to equal 21. By doing so, the column is cleared and you can continue to make plays in order to get more points. You cannot, however, play a card into a column if it would cause the sum to be more than 21.
The game will continue until you cannot play your current face up card into any of the columns. For example: Say your current face up card is a King, and the sum of all five columns is over 11, then you would not have any place to play the King, so the game is over! Once the game is over, click on the "Collect Points" link to get your points. This will update your total scores and game records.
Full House Three 3's and two 6's = 200 pts
[Tip Maximize your 21's:The maximum number of 21's from a standard deck of cards uses 51 of the 52 cards. While there is some randomness when you clear a deck, the following sets are good to keep in mind
4 aces + 10 = 4 sets of 21 (8 cards used)
11 + 10 = 12 sets of 21 ( 36 cards used) (11 can be 2 + 9, 3 + 8, 4 + 7, 5 + 6)
6,7,8 = 1 set of 21 (3 cards used)
3,4,5,9= 1 set of 21 (4 cards used)
