You're right, and I should have noted that the shortcut works only for Windows PCs. Basically, you're going ahead a window and back one or back one and then ahead one. One command is illegal and the other gets you a new game. The advantages are: (1) you don't have to keep the pointer on a single line, especially one that moves, and (2) you don't get hand cramps by holding and clicking the mouse. Another advantage is that it's easier to avoid clicking "new game" with your mouse hand when you find a board you want to play. I mean, you still can, just not as often.

Keyboard shortcut I discovered. ONCE YOU'VE PLAYED A GAME OR ABANDONED IT, hold down the ALT key. Then alternately press the left and right arrow keys to see a new game. The cursor does not have to be in any particular place, it doesn't matter if you get a board never played before, and no other actions are needed until you get a board you like and then you can play it as usual.

Okay so I tried it (on my Mac), it didn't work for me. It must be a PC only thing. I usually find another game by another keyboard shortcut, Command R or for you Control R .

That's a great find! Thanks!

That's awesome! I just realized that I'm not even close to that...and I've been playing for a while!
