This achievement took me a very long time to obtain, but it just deals with pure Luck!!! For this, you must obtain all the Ace cards in the Hole without ever having to deal any cards from the pile.
I already had my level 19, but still took me about 50 or so more games after to get it! I was playing the 3 cards at a time difficulty. And as soon as I couldnt move any more cards (without having to touch the card pile) then I simply started another game right away!
Just keep doing this on once you place the 4th ace in its hole the achievement will unlock on the spot
Rusty Nail zh Did you do it with the 3 cards, because it was easier? Or doesn't it matter?

acedawg4 I actually played the entire game up to level 19 all on Single Card Games because it was easier and almost always a win! But I never seen the oppertunity to get all Aces that way! But when I switched to three cards, it came up within about 30-40 rounds. But it is all random, so good luck

SwamiMacGyver It took me 99 games AFTER I got to level 20 to get this achievement. I hate achievements based on luck!

acedawg4 Yeah same here, I got it about 20 games AFTER reaching my level 19. It did suck, and the other lucky based achievement is REALLY bothering me for Tri-towers (or whatever it was called)

AL1 Uggh, took me 87 games after reaching level 20. At least these go by quick , I think I did those 87 games in about 30 minutes.

shezzor I'm hating this achievement, I've been playing this for an hour each day and still nothing :(

acedawg4 Yeah just like the achievement says.....you need luck....lol
Just keep trying everyone has been thru that time now. I still can't get the other luck achievement and I'm about to throw my phone.....lol

The Dauntless If this achievement takes SOOO many games why do 40% of people have it?!?

Usually those difficult luck based achievements are in the 5-10% range.

Maybe some ppl know something we dont.

Iced Hawk Dauntless... People has this achievement because they play too much solitaire... like me, always playing damn solitare to get this achievement...

acedawg4 Yeah I must agree....its not skill at all. But its purely luck. I think its just high because of the amount of games needed to play as it is to reach level 20 - your bound to hit this eventually.
Good luck to all........

Rmc52482 I'm on level 182 and it's only happened to me twice, so yeah it takes awhile.

Beachem I had to go through 1,568 games to get this damn achievement. It was so frustrating!!! It was funny when I finally did pop it too. I went over to a friend's house who is also an achievement whore and I was telling him about how many games I had cycled through already and how pissed I was getting at it. I load up the game and tell him "I'm gonna try a few times here quick for the hell of it." Third game I cycled through...I got it lol. I was so relieved.

Bistric Finally I get lucky with one of these luck-based achievements. Aftdr only 16 games. And it was doing the one card deal. It's OK, I hate myself as well.
