About PokerSolo

PokerSolo is a free, independent web game that brings the classic card puzzle Poker Squares to your browser and phone, with daily challenges, multiplayer and global leaderboards.

What is Poker Squares?

Poker Squares (also called Poker Solitaire) is a single-player card game that has been played for decades and appears in many classic card game collections. The idea is simple: deal cards one at a time into a 5×5 grid and try to form the best poker hands in every row and column.

The game has two well-known scoring systems. The American system, used by PokerSolo, follows traditional poker values closely. The English system re-ranks hands by how difficult they are to make in the grid. Poker Squares has also attracted interest from artificial intelligence researchers, including the EAAI Parameterized Poker Squares challenge, because it combines simple rules with a huge number of possible decisions.

Why we built PokerSolo

We love games that are quick to learn and rewarding to master. Poker Squares fits perfectly: one game takes a few minutes, there is no opponent to wait for, and every decision matters. We wanted a version that is clean, fast, works on any device, and adds a reason to come back every day.
