Chances of wining
I suggest creating a new section after Rules called "Chances of Winning" as follows: Chances of Winning The 1/3 chance of winning according to Hoyle [ref 1] is typical experience for beginners. Because all cards are visible before playing begins, the chance of winning can be increased considerably by studying the pile before making any move. Winning is not guaranteed, but random deals can be won assuming perfect play about 86.2% of the time according to mathematical analysis with the Monte Carlo Method [arXiv:1906.12314 (Version 4) January 2023]. With computerized play that allows undoing moves, the game should be won between 33% and 86% of the time depending upon the patience of the player. Rsiemon (talk) 22:43, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
