Please describe the problem in as much detail as possible: I only missed one queen and one king. Shouldn't that have been 48 points instead of 44?

No, that’s no how we do it, @BetterChoices. Click to show the rules, then click scoring.

The score is based on the lengths of the runs of cards of the same suit:

Number of cards in a run Resulting score

13  13
12  11
11  9
10  7
9   6
8   5
7   4
6   3
5   2
4   1
3   0
2   0
1   0

The max is 13 so that a complete game's score is 52, like the foundation based games. It's not linear so that it rewards games with longer runs.
