What are some advanced techniques for achieving a high score in Solitaire for iPhone, specifically the 3 Draw variety? I'm looking for more than simply a recitation of the scoring rules packaged with the game.
The current leaderboards in the iPhone Game Center have some ridiculously high scores. How are they able to achieve scores in the 20,000 range when I can barely manage to scrape 4,000 myself?

The secret (which is no real secret) is to finish in as few moves as possible, as fast as you can. If you find a hand you can finish in under 100 moves, replay it several times until you get the moves memorized without having to think about them. Then just keep practicing and watch your times decrease. To get none of the top 25 scores, you'll need a time of around 25 seconds (I'm not sure if this is till the case or not, but times under 25 seconds will not give you the bonus because the programmers assume they're glitches).
