Object
Move all cards to the foundations which build up in rank by suit from the Ace.
Quick Description
Like Algerian Patience or Carthage using alternate playing card decks. The layout consists of the talon and foundations at the top, the row stacks below and the reserves at the bottom. See the Glossary for a description of the play on the various types of row stacks.
Strategy
These games are won or lost at the end game. Use every means to keep the reserve stacks short during game play so they can be used at the end game.

    Rules
    One card is dealt to each of the row stacks and four to each of the reserve stacks. The Aces are dealt to the foundations. When the talon is clicked two cards are dealt to each reserve stack until ten cards are left in the talon, the remaining cards are then dealt to the row stacks.
