Wow I absolutely DESTROYED this lady in canasta....

[Accipiter22]

Not sure if we have any canasta players here but check out the screen shots. 3 hands I finished off my opponent in. I've been playing about 15 years, and my friends and I would always save score sheets after games...None of us had ever annihilated someone this bad before in a game.

screen shot after 1st hand

screen shot after 2nd hand

Finished her off with this third hand

To her credit I played the lady 3 more times and she won all 3 in very closely contested games. Just thought I'd share

Thought: Would anyone be up for an ATOT canasta tourny?

 

[Canai]

I have no idea what it is

I'm a Euchre and poker player

 

[rocadelpunk]

I'd be down for a canasta tourny!

I usually play draw 2 out 1, but am up for anything.

I dunno if yahoo has like a gamertag, but my username is rocadelpunk

And, that was a brutal victory.

I am willing to bet they either didn't know the game or were like 12.

I devasted a 6 year old at checkers once.

I beat my year's valedictorian in Othello 62 to 1(I know theres 64 squares, but we both couldnt move for the last space).

Did she sob and cry like the women you've had sex with did?

I actually lost the next 3 to her...I hope she wasn't 12

That is the luck of Canasta. Fun game, but sometimes you are dealt a hand that is unworthy of being played. If you can't get 2 of a kind, you are screwed. Even if the points required to meld drops to 15 as some versions of the game do. It really sucks when you have all the 2s and all the jokers, yet you can't enter the game since you can't get 2 of a kind.

Of vice versa, when you have all 2 of a kinds and no wilds to get in with.

And that, my folks, was post #15,000. I gotta leave this place.

that's why I like to play the 1 canasta to go out...you usually end up playing 4-5 hands + a game.
