You definitely shouldn't use TI-OS variables for this. There is an
assembler directive (I cant rmember which one) that defines a certain
number of bytes in one command. You would want to use that.
.dd 52 'Its something with .dX where X is another letter, not b or w

Program writeback is something that happens automaticaly For example:
Myprog:
ld a,5
ld (Data1),a
ret
Data1: .db 0
Next time you run the program, Data1 will be 5

There are a lot of optimization hints at http://www.usmo.com/~joewing,

A couple of things are replace your ld a,0's with xor a's nd other space

You might consider using 1 common background image for all the card
tables, or instead of using bitmaps, draw your UI with ILine's and
IPoint's and things like that
By the way, welcome back James. Its been a while since I've done
anything on this list either since my 83 got stolen. Now I'm trying to
learn God-awful 68K which makes Z80 look like BASIC. Congradulations on
TI adopting your tutorial
