March 7, 2012: Tri-Peaks Solitaire & Texas Hold'em Poker

Tri-Peaks Solitaire Badge Challenge

Tomb of Kings Badge
Earn 3500 tokens this week! (Earn a Jackpot Spin to check your progress)
Win this badge plus 2000 Tokens!

While this game can be fun to play, I'm so glad Tripeak Buddy is available for badges like this since the only way to earn tokens is to complete games and 3,500 tokens is a LOT of games. That said, here's the stats:

Game Difficulty: No difficulty - played against computer
Buddy Settings: Default
Tokens: 6,317 tokens earned
Time: 1 hour 14 minutes
NOTES: Basically just have to play the game (or let the Buddy do it), and hope Pogo smiles upon you to give you favorable card placement.

Texas Hold'em Poker Badge Challenge

Urban Cowgirl Badge
Win 13 Hands with Two Pair or better this week!
Win this badge plus 2000 Tokens!

If you're like me and poker is just not your game, then you can earn the badge like me too (use Texas Holdem Buddy). I'm not a good judge about how fast or slow this game can be won, but here's how the Buddy did:

Game Difficulty: No difficulty - played against computer under "Limit" / "Just for Fun"
Buddy Settings: Default
Tokens: 2,330 tokens earned
Time: 1 hour 36 minutes
NOTES:As far as I could tell the same amount of time will pass regardless of type of room chosen, although if you don't want to risk losing a lot of tokens (like me), play against robots under the 'limit' and 'just for fun' tabs just to be safe.
