Poker Solitaire is one of my favorites. But I could never get it working with the old Just Solitaire engine. For one thing, it is a very different game. Instead of a tableau and foundations, you are simply putting together a grid of poker hands.
I had to put in some special code to calculate the poker hand values. That's something not used in any other solitaire game on the site, of course.
Also, the game requires that text fields be placed in the play area to show the scores of each poker hand.
But I had this in mind when constructing the new Just Solitaire site. So it wasn't hard to add Poker Solitaire to the list of games.
