yeah...I don't usually have that problem but it would be nice

welcome to the forums Svendalf, looking forward to your strategies and pics!

Well, I've had an electronic hand-held Yahtzee game for probably 20 years. Actually, two... the first got all worn out.

About 10 years ago I got a score of 690. I've been trying to beat that for the last 10 years. I've been in the 600s a few times. You need 4 yahtzees to get in the low 600s. I think I had 5 yahtzees in that 690 game.

Tonight!! Mark the date... July 24, 2010.... not only did I get 5 yahtzees, but I got a score of 733! BTW, the display will show only up to 4 hash marks for the yahtzees but you get the correct total score.

Has anyone gotten a higher score???

I'm thinking of retiring the game.

Rats! 835!!! I guess I can't retire yet! My 733 is a piker!

733 tonight... took me almost 20 years.... had 690 about 10 years ago. I see that someone got 835! I'll be 69 years old next week. I wonder if I have enough time left to beat that one???

Happy early birthday henryO and congrats on the huge 733 score!

and now that you've found this thread you definitely can't retire from playing HH Yahtzee just yet.....it's a race to 900!!

Woohooo...737 tonight and a picture to prove it. I've had over 800 once about 4-5 years ago and had a few 500-600 games
