I was beating solitaire several times a day until I started needing glasses, then I stopped before I went completely blind.

PER day?
I cannot answer that question since, I do not play solitaire per day. |

For pre extraction surgery, I was given a paper questionnaire that had multiple choice options such as daily, weekly and monthly and then by how many.

I usually just play until I win and then maybe a few more times after that until I win again and then I might finally give up, unless I want to win just one more time.
Otherwise, mostly I play FreeCell and I'm running at about 54% win rate with that. |

You can win more often if you select to have a single card turn over instead of three.
This is the way I play, because I am not a masochist.

I play Chinese solitaire and beat it probably about 30-40% of the time.

I play Northwest Territory on my solitaire program on my phone.
I've started the stats over many times, and played a bunch in each set...but can never keep it much above 25% for wins. |

Very dependent on the variety of solitaire.
Klondike (that's regular old American Solitaire) I run around 20% wins. Scorpion, Alaska, Ukranian Solitaire, and Russian Solitaire, and Spider I run around 5%. My latest favorite is Batsford, which is nigh impossible, 1-2% wins. I have a lot of time on my hands, and 250 versions of solitaire.
