Everyone started with a jack, but were they able to make a winning hand out of this month’s MindGames puzzle? For those who haven’t played the game before, a rolling jack beats every other combination. And yes, he does have an odd expression on his face but “Mechanic’s Creeper” is not a winning guess – though it did make us laugh out loud.
The correct answer was Rolling Jack, and our randomly selected winners are:
• Nate Johanning, Waterloo High School, Waterloo, IL
• Michael Ward, Southern Westchester BOCES, Rye Brook, NY
• Rob Ellis, Bristol Technical Education Center, Bristol, CT
