I don't play enough to justify buying anything, but one thing that drives me crazy with the free Pocket Euchre is the lack of a quick end to the round. If the score is 3-1, there's no sense in playing the last round. There's also little value in being forced to "select" the last card in your hand ... the computer could just lay down all the cards quickly.

Just wondering if the Birdsoft version does either of those things?

I mention those two items because I had a game for a Palm handheld I had some years ago which did both. I can't even find the game any more (much less remember what it was called), so even emulating Palm on my Axim isn't much of an option. The freebie suffices in a pinch, but I probably play less often because of those frustrating items.
