Here's a useless bit of trivia for those who may have wondered at one
time or another about how many moves it takes to solve an 8x4 deal.
Well, excluding unsolvable deals (of course), every one of the first
1M 8x4 MS FreeCell deals can be solved in 54-moves or less using
Horne's automove and supermoves.
In addition, there are at most 16 deals that can't be solved in
50-moves or less.
Now you can stop wondering.
Have a nice day!
PS: Although I don't know for sure, it's my belief that most deals
can be solved in 40 moves or less.
