No shens, a couple of years ago I worked with a guy who got 70's and 80's when I thought I was doing good to break a hundred, we competed with each other 'til he got a 52 when I was barely able to do it in 60, finally I got into the 50's and he did 48 and I gave up for a couple of months 'til I found out he was leaving the company, I had to beat him before he left so I tried a bunch of times and got a 41 when he wasnt around, he didnt believe me so I tried again a couple of times with him watching and got 40, heres a quote from a post I made back then
Speeed Solitaire!!! Draw one standard style, my best time...... 40 seconds and 17,800 points


Late last year I had nothing to do at work for a few months so a coworker and I constantly tried to top each other in speed/score playing standard "Draw One" windows solitaire, I set the mark with 72 seconds at 10,700 points which he couldnt beat for a while, then he got 64 seconds at 12,000 points and kept getting better while I couldnt beat him for a long time, he got to 54 seconds at 13,800 points and the best I could do was 57 seconds at 11,600, finally I totally focused on the game and clicked like mad and got 41 seconds at 17,500 he didnt see it and thought I faked the screenshot so I did it one more time and got my alltime best at 40 seconds at 17,800 points ! I have not played since.

They play both. The record for 3 card draw is still impressive : 22 seconds.
