"I think its fun, interesting, it keeps you into it if you keep score when you play a solitaire game. For instance, in the game of the solitaire game of golf, you could play nine holes or eighteen holes and then add up your score and say that four per hand is par. In the game of Tripeaks, a simple way to keep score is just to add up the number of cards left on the tableau when you finish the hand. Say, OKay, I'm going to play a block of five hands then add up my score and try to beat it from last time. So, for this hand, you just count the cards left on the tableau. That's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen. It's a score of thirteen. There you go! It's a simple enough way to keep score. If you want to try to have some fun with it, you know, multiply it by ten and if you clear one of the peaks, give yourself a bonus."
