Unsolvable game (pyramid) in the final stage of 25th anniversary tournament

bennyk37 · Sep 15, 2019

The task is to get 12 aces in 1 deal. The first two games are solvable, so if you solve them, you get 6 aces. But the third game is unsolvable, and I proved it mathematically. So the maximum I can get is 9 aces, and there are no more deals, so the whole
game has no solution.

Below I show the picture of the last (3d) game that has no solution, you can check it by yourself.

The sequence of cards below is:

6, 4, Q, 7, K, 3, 8, 3, 7, 5, K, J, Q, 5, 9, Q, 9, 10, Q, 3, 6, 4, A, 8

Thanks, I've already found a mistake in my proving, and got a solution by myself as well

It is solvable. Also you can get to that 3rd game with already 8 aces cleared.

Video solution on YouTube (just selected one from the available list):

That seems to be a bug within the game itself Daneya. I can't suggest ant troubleshooting. I have checked and others are having the issue as well, so I'll suggest you reach out to the game support if you can (I can't find a link for them)

all games are NOT solvable. No way this side of heaven can you complete a pyramid when three 8's are sitting on top of two 5's. this happens more times than anyone cares to admit
