Joe C did it again!! Thanks so much for competing my Challenges, you're the BEST Joe!!! 

I am a man with two powerful computers, a full suite of auto programs on each and a strong desire to give back.

It brings balance to my Pogo playing to help my friends, especially when they might not be able to play as much as my computers can.

There is another "Rated" Spade challenge...if anyone need help I can provide three players.  Two dummies and a Third player (actually my dummies out played me).

  Guess I won't be doing this one, too much for me, maybe, GL everyone! 

[Joe C]

I will be working on Rated Spades badges (Pogo released a Legendary Mix badge with rated spades) in a week or two.

I will probably be quadruple browsing on one computer, so anyone that wants to earn that badge can send me your information. I would like to help everyone that needs help at one time, since this is such a pain in the

Anyone know what this means and how to do it?

Anyone know what this means and how to do it?

It means that instead of only having 3 of certain cards, you have to have 4 of the certain cards to meld and get credit, and you can't use a joker or a 2 as part of the meld.

Example: say you have 3 7s to meld. You won't get credit. Wait until you have 4 7s, then meld it.

Ahh, OK, so just start the meld with 4 cards and then I can add to them later?
and thanks.

[Stinkerbell]

Yep! That's exactly right. And you're welcome!

Just my 2cents--------------if you pick up the whole pile there is usually a whole slew  cards and you can easily meld 4 or more.   

[S1lent]

Greetings,
That is the best way. Double browse...pick up the whole pile (usually under 20 cards remaining).  Then meld just 3 cards plus the 1 from the discard pile...then add 4 from your hand. 

Now if your dummy hand has lots of cards in a certain rank i.e. 5 aces...just discard some of them.  That is why I start playing the dummy hand with about 20 cards remaining.  I could get a total of 10 out of the max of 11.

Well do have a great day.
