My experience has been that Pocket Euchre's engine is not that great as Birdie referenced. It is a decent time waster and the price is right, yes, but the partner's play even on expert mode can be annoying. Pocket Euchre does have a play face-up feature that is nice for training. If you're a Euchre addict, I'd recommend trying Birdsoft or DreamQuest.

DreamQuest was very good, but there was never anyone in the lobby! At least not for euchre. Lots of Spades players there. Not like Yahoo on the PC where there are thousands on line at a time. I'd settle for 10 or 12 on DreamQuest, but never saw it.

Birdsoft has an excellent logic engine. If you've seen the work they've put into All In Hold 'Em, you know what I mean. I never played enough of DreamQuest to say one way or the other, but it seems pretty good.

If by "best," you mean it is free, then you are correct. But, if you mean that it has the most realistic and logical strategy, then I beg to differ.
