There are three simple tips that increase the odds of you building a longer straight:
* Always lead with either the highest or lowest card possible. That generally gives you at least one correct guess. Always choose a King over an Ace because it can let you get the four kings in a row for the special bonus.
* Seven ("7") is your median number; in general, when your card is higher than seven, choose "lower," and when your card is lower than seven, choose higher. On a seven, peek and/or pass if you're not feeling lucky.
* With your middlemost numbers, using the "Peek" option will tell you how many cards remaining are higher and lower than that card; this also improves your odds of guessing correctly. When in doubt, consider passing.
These basic tips contributed to my two wins and a few 25-card straights. Good luck.
