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.

Minor update available. I fixed a bug in the high scores code.

New: v.0.1.1

Skydrive Win32 bin and Source

FilePasta: Win32 Bin

File Pasta: FreeBasic Source

To compile the source you will need the graphics from the binary distro.
