10 SOLITAIRE Facts You Probably Didn't Know

[@gameranxTV]

"How much did they pay you guys to give Solitaire a good review?" And no, we haven't ran out of ideas.

[@Aksel-S]

+gameranx I never understood Solitaire xD

[@lazarnedeljkovic5615]

Yeah how much

[@bradyhuff899]

This channel has lost it

[@banana_man4850]

+gameranx Seven billion dollars. :)

[@HeyEd456]

Yeah, How much!? you sellouts...

[@julianklingbiel2064]

This is like the watchmojo of video games

[@ianvillie3262]

+Julian Klingbiel and that is good.

[@ryanrhino2318]

+Julian Klingbiel No watchmojo is terrible

[@rollie5886]

+ryan rhino *terrible

[@ryanrhino2318]

Rollie Weatherly thanks

[@greycito]

nope¡.

[@franckr8277]

Hey fella, I learned this game when I was like 6. My mom was a semi pro at solitaire. Since we couldn't afford a computer in the late 90's, she would hop in the cab to a friend's office who had this game on his computer and play as long as she could. I actually have a picture of her sitting in front of those old ass computer screens back in 1999 in reach as I type this in :D . Today she still finishes a game in less than 1 min. Having not less than 12k ish She said solitaire is pretty much like poker...the key is not to win every hand, but to analyse a potentially great game and to finish strong using a sharp mind that one must train over and over again. Love this review, thank you for posting it. -Decimus

[@af1159]

I should show this video to my mum. She plays it all the time

[@gameranxTV]

+Lovely Parasite It's rated "P" for Parent friendly.

[@bradyhuff899]

British fuck head

[@af1159]

+Brady huff No idea if you called me a "british fuck head" because I spelled it "mum" but I'm actually Swiss and just prefer this way of writing it.

[@Euler13]

+Lovely Parasite I was thinking the same.

[@MrRobotman]

How has this got 8 likes? XD

[@seratope]

"Hey, Bob, did you play your hundred games yet?" "Oh, shit! I played one more! That counts as cheating on this weird world epidemic! What will we do?! We're screwed!" lol

[@jamesjeames]

funny.

[@italianfoodname534]

+dovekin teh spoder HAHAHAH

[@xxvainfloxx9354]

+dovekin teh spoder funny, however a 'world epidemic' is called a 'Pandemic'still funny tho

[@ballaking1000]

+XxVainFloxX Funny? It's HILARIOUS, I'm fucking dying over here! What a well-crafted and thought-out joke I tell ya.

[@ColombianGamer300899]

Excellent Vid!! You should do Pinball next.

[@looijmansje]

1.41 "mathematicians and theorists" *shows chemistry formulas*

[@crimson2knight]

I feel sorry for this man, Wes Cherry. Creating such an influential game and no credit. His name isn't even the first to come up when you look up the game!

[@JamesDavern12]

Agreed

[@seratope]

+crimson2knight Instead, you find a tropical fruit known as the West Cherry.

[@seratope]

Also, are you sure you aren't looking it up on Bing? That's made by Microsoft.

[@crimson2knight]

Yup, I google my searches. And it was after my search that I realize his name is spelled Wes instead of West.

[@MiDnYTe25]

+crimson2knight heros don't do their things for personal gain, but for the greater good.

[@guidogarcia8500]

[@vitaplex1]

[@yueteng]

#8: mathematicians and theorists actually struggle to calculate the probability to win a game of Solitaire. #7: apparently 79% of the games are theoretically winnable. Well, they don't have to struggle anymore, since gameranx knows the exact probability!

[@yeastyboyx]

I was sceptical on the video choice I won't lie. almost thought you guys where running out of ideas but this thoroughly amazed me.

[@captainatlanta]

how about "10 things I hope you dident know about gameranx"

[@AiyetoroFeligrus]

*didn't

[@potatolord8444]

+Matthew McBurnett that's creative.

[@ruanheymans7382]

+Matthew McBurnett 38 thumbs for a spelling mistake? Pfffffff..........

[@AiyetoroFeligrus]

did you just call a girl the guys part and a guy the girls part?

[@Bodyknock]

Despite all the video games and board games I play all the time, Solitaire is still probably one of my most played games ever, especially if I include variants like Spider Solitaire or the Churchill Solitaire mobile app that Donald Rumsfeld produced (which is surprisingly fun!) So yeah, you won't see me making fun of this top 10 list, solitaire is great. :)

[@JimFaindel]

This is the most fun I've gotten from both solitaire and gameranx in quite a while.

[@MarshallZPie]

$250,000 is probably more than you will ever make? Are you serious?

[@ftwinzeler]

was about to ask

[@landanrainey7072]

[@dillpickle6843]

[@jacksonpaul5714]

In a year maybe

[@loganm881]

Exactly

[@Joe1up]

When i was a kid back in the 90's, Solitaire once crashed my computer during the winning card stream thing... And now i am forever fearful of it. True story.

[@julianklingbiel2064]

Damn dude that's ice cold

[@Stormprobe]

Microsoft charges a subscription to play Solitaire in Windows 10.

[@formerctgovernordannelmall1452]

no they don't, I played windows 10 solitaire this morning and I've never had to pay a fee

[@davegraham3673]

Just Download the game please,Solitaire

[@ScaldedProductions]

"She made $250k" "More money that I'll ever make in my life" You should get a job!

[@nw1259]

?

[@markgreen4209]

+*NIILO* most people will make $250 thousand in their lifetime.

[@majork.651]

+Jay Swain that is like $5k a year, no way this is true

[@markgreen4209]

+Ben Bori I meant that most people make _at least_ $250,000.

[@majork.651]

+Jay Swain oh ok, sorry i do not speak english natively

[@Valdarious]

Number 3 is definitely true. I used to teach new computer users back in the late 90's at my game center and solitaire was the program I would tell them to go home and practice using a mouse on.

[@The1Helleri]

I was not expecting this to be as interesting as it was. I had no idea solitaire had that much importance to Gaming and the Windows OS.

[@BiTheBooks]

A relative once kicked me off the computer for "always playing pointless video games"...she then began playing Solitaire. I told her that Solitaire is technically a video game because it uses a video component and is, in essence, a game...she then kicked me out of the house.

[@Heishirosuke]

Isn't living with neurotics fun? Don't worry, mate. It's all uphill from there...!

[@TheGuardy]

At school, they removed all traces of the windows games from the start menu and the desktop (but not the actual harddrive, for whatever reason) once, because shit did very decidedly not get done in computer class otherwise. Taught me a lot about the folder and/or file structure of Win XP, and about how to handle programming and playing Solitair at the same time, but I have to hand it to my teacher - hiding Solitaire was fairly effective for the five minutes that it lasted.

[@jebbush4godemperor285]

Thank you for making videos had a fire this makes me feel better

[@MuscleCarLover]

Also, you can play it without a mouse, space to pick up or drop, directional button to move the cursor, F2 for a new game

[@AwesomeBobz]

Jake is easily my favourite KZbin personality.

[@beo1891]

So am I the only one here that was genuniely impressed?

[@datboi0074]

Wow. Gameranx, I gotta say, bravo. Very well researched and you made an amazingly informative video on solitaire. Flippin' solitaire. I liked this video a lot. Can't wait for the next video. Keep er' going with the amazing content. :]

[@joremkeeler770]

[@imstillw8ing]

I heard somewhere that if you shuffled a deck of cards once every 3 seconds, took a step forward once every million years, and take a teaspoon out of the ocean with every step, you'd drain the ocean, and walk around the earth once and you'd only be 1/3rd of the way of shuffling the deck every possible way

[@cooberr]

Gameranx, gameranx never changes... Never mind.

[@Saiy24]

[@natshenkin]

[@usmaanali131]

Ah the good old days of playing pinball on Xp. oh. wrong game.

[@SplendidEcho]

That be pretty cool

[@dbpooper7512]

Fun fact: When you shuffle a deck of playing cards, there is very little chance that anyone in history has ever had that exact same combination of cards.

[@devinsword5777]

"Edge, or whatever the fuck its called now." definitely loled at this point

[@webfischi]

Fact three was the most interesting, I didn't know that the people of the past, had problems with drag and drop, but now I know why this game exist, and why I am doinig the daly challenge every day :D

[@Hola-ip2et]

I just came here 'cause crave gameranx

[@nightcrawler1924]

gameranx,please,I love you guys, you are up there with my top 3 channels which includes PlayStation access,outsidexbox,and u guys. but your latest videos has me worried you are turning into the next watchmojo

[@WhoElseButZane]

solitaire can be summed up as such, " organize these cards, WITH RULES"

[@Artemis0713]

+Zane Roberts Isnt that just every single card game?

[@jdroo]

do 10 minesweeper Facts :D

[@rab351]

Lothar Meyer was developing the periodic table at the same time as Dmitri Mendeleev and created a scheme nearly identical to Dmitri's. The periodic table was constructed from similar chemical and physical properties in elements and in an order of atomic weight, also there were elements that hadn't been found yet but fit into the scheme as the scheme accounted for atomic weight and could accommodate this and it was even expected that these gaps existed in specific places. So saying solitaire had some influence is more anecdotal than anything else.

[@Tool0GT92]

I got the season pass for EA's solitaire 2K16 for only $50

[@ash64181]

wow no fair i had to pay $89.99 for the season pass when it first came out 😢

[@spaghettioragiettio223]

+ash64181WAIT, WHAT, ea made me pay £799.99, honestly im not surprised

[@ablone]

+Donald Trump but you have a small loan of a million dollars...

[@MajkiMoo]

You guys need to make a top 10 facts about Minesweeper +gameranx

[@kurtsimon7530]

I hope they do a video on Fraction Munchers and Oregon Trail.

[@joeyjagodzinski]

You make one video about an old and unorthodox game and everyone is like "sellout","you're out of ideas","you're the watchmojo of video games. It's variety and originality, not bland.

[@qwqk0xkx]

For some reason I expected this notification to have been from Uhohbro

[@graalaam5361]

+Paige Asomeone why

[@eldermaxson9638]

10 solitaire facts I probably didn't care about.

[@unger4132]

+Rappinggrandmaz What if he was actually autistic?

[@bigmommatron]

+FrostyFooy than he is oh no, also call me leafyishere2.0 lel

[@unger4132]

Rappinggrandmaz Yeah i don't really care lel i'm like leafy .something

[@bigmommatron]

+FrostyFooy ? i said that because recently he made fun of someone he didnt know was autistic and got alot of shit for it

[@unger4132]

Rappinggrandmaz yeah i know thats why i said what if he actually was lol

[@wraith0127]

That last comparison does make sense if you think about it. How many internet browsers do most people use mainly? Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari etc. How many Windows solitaire versions to people play? Windows solitaire. (not including copies or clones) Side question, who remembers Netscape Navigator?

[@QuickNETTech]

10 facts about Solitaire. Doesn't mention that there are so many solitaire games, or the fact that the name basically means a game that you play solitarily (alone).

[@leeking3697]

+the truth The Truth laying truth bombs

[@QuickNETTech]

+the truth The sad part is a lot of people don't actually know that that is the reason it is called solitaire. You overestimate the intelligence of the average American, especially the younger ones.

[@leeking3697]

QuickNET Tech Most of my fellow US citizens aren't stupid, and it would ignorant if you were to think so. The reason why everyone thinks we're highly unintelligent is because the stupid ones here are louder. As the saying goes, "A few bad apples spoil the bunch.".

[@QuickNETTech]

+Classy Lizard Man Is Classy True, but most of the people I know (knew actually, I don't socialize much anymore. Been going through a metric shit tonne recently.) were to busy getting drunk and high and the women getting knocked up (3 in the laat 6 months actually). I guess most of that is my fault. The few people I do hang with now could care less about little pieces of random knowledge like that. I guess life clouds my perception a little too easy.

[@leeking3697]

QuickNET Tech Yeah I understand. I grew up in a small town and most of my piers ended up getting someone kocked up, or getting kocked up themselves, and a lot of them did meth. Yeah, for awhile there my surroundings blinded my perception of other people for awhile until I moved somewhere else

[@therealjlil]

I for one enjoy this video because Solitaire is a game, no matter what you might think, and the facts are interesting.

[@Daisieheart]

i freaking love solitaire man i was mad when my smart phone didn't come with it guess i'm just used to computers having it

[@brockdomain8509]

1:20 Wait Wait Wait you dont think you will make 250k in your life? If work for 50 years , you would have only had to make $5000 a year. thats like 14$ a day :/

[@Mopki3]

Guess I was lied to? I had a math teacher in highschool who blamed his streak being broken by a janitor losing a game on his computer. Otherwise, he had a ZERO loss streak and he said every game was winnable. Something must be up.

[@beargrills3508]

Oh no! Gameranx contrapted the watchmojo syndrome: making videos on weird subjects that no one cares about because they ran out of ideas. Guys, you can still save yourselves, HOLD ON!

[@sarukun1228]

Haven't played Solitaire in years. I'm a minesweeper guy.

[@seratope]

[@davidbarac8944]

OK Gameranx first a damn phone review and now solitaire?

Great video i love solitaire so enjoyed this video thanks

[@goosenukem4880]

thank you for teaching me about solitaire

[@terminallytrash]

I'm surprised this wasn't uploaded on April fools day

[@ikari_no_edits]

Wow... I didn't even thing solitaire had more use then just learning people about the drag and drop feature back in the day.

[@ruben980]

"Or edge or whatever the fuck it's called now" hahaha that was too funny

[@xiiiultima]

My record for Solitaire is 21 won games in a row. Man was I pissed to see that 5 of clubs get buried in the 22nd game...

[@JackLe1127]

1:38 That's not math.... That's chemistry...

[@keithkillner500]

"seven thousand trillion"? Soooo seven quadrillion then

[@XavierGamingYT1]

anyone else feel like playing at least 1 game of solitare now?

[@nmaurok]

gameranx, getting closer and closer to WatchMojo every day...

[@renegadebond6268]

not really

[@ProWithABow231]

"Mathematicians and theorists calculated the probability of..." *shows photo of a chemistry equation*

[@pyrix]

"7 thousand trillion" So, y'know, seven quadrillion? That is a word y'know.

[@Wyrdangus]

I once spent an entire swimming carnival on solitaire as I wasn't swimming. Kept breaking my own PB and got under a minute completion time. It was so fun

[@moondoor9031]

I bet Solitaire will be the Game of the Year - GOTY

[@bobthedj6992]

Edge is actually a really good browser, I like it and it's tough to decide between chrome and edge.

[@YTho-ev1ej]

Don't know how the fuck I enjoyed this video so much. It's fucking solitaire

[@DivyaRustagi]

Mendeleev didnt create the Modern Periodic Table. It was Henry Mosely who did. Mendeleev made a more sensible periodic table than Dobreiner and the others did. Mendeleev took atomic mass as the basis + Hydrides and oxides made by elements as the main criteria. Henry Mosely took atomic number as the criteria for Modern periodic table. :P

[@adibejleri9664]

[@dewangpatil]

Fun thing in factory workers play Solitaire whole day after completing audits on their pc

[@stupidjuggler2985]

I play solitaire at school it's so satisfying to win a game and see what the cards do

[@jonathantefft2902]

You should do another video like this for Minesweeper because that game is awesome!

[@BrownOpsLeak]

$250k is more than you'll make in a lifetime? Gamranx's yearly earnings is $1 million according to socialblade...

[@jsleahy76]

Yes, but he's referring to himself, not GameRanx as a whole.

[@OnyDeus]

250k is still waaay too little for a lifetime, that means he'll work about 10 years for 12 bucks an hour and he's DONE. F that work thang he says.

[@CoolDudeClem]

And here was I just thinking its "Just another boring card game" that just there simply for the sake of being there. I don't know the rules of ANY card games, heck I don't even know "go fish", if I did, I could become a millionaire playing solitaire online as well, but, if I could make a living out of playing other video games ... nuff said.

[@RyanAlters]

When nothing else is happening for top tens so you do this, papa bless

[@averagegamingplayer]

This video made me want to play solitaire

Who do you imagine the people who dislike are? I imagine moms who don't like video games and people who missed the like button.

That explains my dad. The only reason why he used the Windows XP was just for solitaire and because he was boring.

[@harisditta5695]

Back in the day when I got bored I would play draw one timed. I think my shortest game was a little under a minute with a really good hand.

Well I've watched every other video on KZbin. Guess I'll watch this one too.
