How to Post in Is It Winnable?
The Is It Winnable? category is for posting games that you are having trouble with and would like to see solved.
To post, be sure to name the game (such as "FreeCell") and give the game number in Pretty Good Solitaire (or any of our other games, they are all the same).
So, for example, you could ask "Can anyone solve FreeCell #11982?"
(Spoiler: that game is unsolvable so the answer is no).

Is Batsford #1 winnable?
I didn't win it but I did win numbers, 2,3,4,6,8.9 and 10 = 70%. Not bad for a game rated as 8%. 😊
I have won 71 out of 72 random games but just can’t win #1! Thanks for the quick reply. Sure wish someone would win it.
My best score with #1 was 27 after playing it many times. No matter which cards we access in the tableau we always land up with a shortage of red tens and black nines.
EDIT
Best score now 39.
#1 may actually be winnable. My best is now 46.

FreeCell Plus is our standalone FreeCell game, Richard.
The game numbers are the same as in PGS. Since #11982 is the first unwinnable game, #178 is winnable.
Ah. Thanks Tom. ☺️ That explains things.
