Thats a pleasant card game, I'd never played Yablon before It looks like something I could play at work between me and the guy I sit next to to try and pass the day a bit quicker.

Nice one. Mouse support would be cool though!

I thought about mouse support, but there isn't really anything to move around like in solitaire. You could use the mouse for the betting I suppose, but the keys seemed easier to me.

Nice!  I hadn't heard of this game before, it's one that lends itself to computerisation because the betting bit would be quite painful as a patience game.  Do they play this for real in casinos?

Slight bug in the highscores - every time I go in to the highscore screen I get an extra row with 1200 scored from 11 turns.

Yeah, it is a casino game, here in the US at least. They call it Red Dog in the casinos though.

I'll look at the high scores. Thanks for the heads up.
