Please help me. Is this winnable, I'm tearing my hair out with this one! |

I normally do very well with Eight Off. I'm not doing well with this one so far. |

Me neither. I think it is probably impossible. |

My best score is 9 guys. If anyone has beaten that I'd appreciate a partial. I cannot see how it's winnable at the moment. |

No surprise. I can't get to 9. |

Thanks Mike. Getting 9 was not easy. It was with the ace of spades and the rest were hearts. |

I've just got a completely different 9. Spades up to the 7, plus the aces of diamonds and clubs. Frustratingly I've also got a column empty and a cell free, but further progress is blocked. Is there another avenue that is still eluding us? |

Well done Mike. I'm declaring it unwinnable.I've played it a hundred times and am pretty sure I've not overlooked anything worthwhile. |

I agree, Im always 1 card away. 9 seems to be it. |
