<h1>General Ganjifa Card Rules</h1>
Ganjifa are playing cards from India and other nations in the
region. Usually round, some rectangular decks have been produced.
The most significant difference between Ganjifa and other types of
cards is that Ganjifa cards have traditionally been individually
hand painted. There are any where from eight to twelve or more
suits per deck, each suit having usually twelve ranks. The two most
common Ganjifa decks are the Mughal which has eight suits and the
Dashavatara which has ten. The suits have pip cards numbered from
Ace through ten and two court cards, the Wazir and the Mir. Ganjifa
solitaire games play the same as games that use the standard deck
but the larger number of different cards in a deck (96 or 120) adds
an element of complexity. The fact that each suit has it's own
color makes things quite interesting in games that use "Alternate
Color" row stacks.

<h1>General Rules</h1>
<p>There are some characteristics common to all the games in this
package. Most of them are played with standard 52-card decks,
either one or two. The cards in each suit are ranked King high. K
stands for King, Q stands for Queen and J stands for Jack. In each
game, the cards are piled up in either ascending or descending
order, on stacks in the main playing area, called the Tableau, or
piles off to the side, called Foundations. Some piles must be built
up in sequence within the same suit, and others are built up in
suits of alternating colors.</p>
<p>The Talon is the stack of cards remaining in the deck, not yet
played upon any of the piles, and not yet placed in the discard
pile. Some people also call it the Stock or the Hand.</p>
<p>The object of each of these games is to use up all the cards in
building Foundations, or to use up all cards in the Talon according
to the rules of the particular game. If all the cards are used up,
you win. If not, you lose.</p>
<p>In all of the games, you deal cards from the Talon to the
discard pile by clicking once on the Talon with the left mouse
button, or pressing &lt;D&gt;. Where permitted by the rules, you
can turn over any face-down card with a single click of the left
mouse button. You pick up and move a card by clicking on it and
holding the button down while you drag it to its intended
destination. If the move would violate the rules, the card will not
go anywhere. If any card or cards can be put on a Foundation, or in
the Ace discard pile of Picture Gallery, a single press of the
&lt;A&gt; key will do all of them, a handy way to quickly finish
certain games. Sometimes the &lt;A&gt; key will build up the
Foundations more than you would like, and these rules allow you to
put cards back into the Tableau from the Foundations. Of course,
you can also use the Undo key &lt;Z&gt;.</p>
<p>If you're confused by all this, just watch a demo game :-)</p>

BY *. In regards to suit/color, you can BUILD BY SUIT, BUILD BY
COLOR, BUILD BY ALTERNATE COLOR, BUILD BY ANY SUIT BUT OWN, or
BUILD REGARDLESS OF SUIT. Note that all games that build will
follow two of these rules, one from each list.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>The set of cards used. Most games use a STANDARD DECK, but games
that use a DOUBLE DECK, a JOKER DECK, or a STRIPPED DECK are not
uncommon.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>DOUBLE DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A deck of cards consisting of two STANDARD DECKS making a total
of 104 cards.</p>
</dd>

<dt><b>JOKER DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A deck of cards consisting of a STANDARD DECK and two jokers
making a total of 54 cards.</p>

aces are ranked 1. If low, aces are ranked as 14. J, Q, and K are
usually ranked 11, 12, and 13 respectively. However, some games may
rank these cards as 10. In such a case, a high ace might be ranked
as 11.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>RESERVE</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Cards in the reserve are usually available to play anywhere.
Usually cannot be built on.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>SLOT</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>See PILE.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>STANDARD DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A 52 card deck. There are four suits of thirteen cards each.
Each suit contains an Ace, 2 through 10, Jack, Queen, and King.
These suits are usually Clubs, Spades, Hearts and Diamonds. These
suits can be grouped into two colors, usually black and red. The
Clubs and the Spaces are black while the Hearts and the Diamonds
are red. PySol allows the possibility of using different decks. In
this case, the new colors and/or suits are substituted into this
paradigm.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>STRIPPED DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A 32 card deck. There are four suits of eight cards each. Each
suit contains an Ace, 7 through 10, Jack, Queen, and King.</p>
</dd>

</dd>
<dt><b>VALUE</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>See RANK.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>WASTE</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A stack of cards face up, usually next to the TALON. Top card
usually in play.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>WRAP AROUND</b></dt>
<dd>

good, but placing a 10 on a 9 is not.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>BUILD DOWN BY *</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Building by placing a card of a lower rank on to a card of a
higher rank by * is permitted. Example: If * is 2, placing a 10 on
a Queen is good, but placing a 10 on a Jack is not.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>BUILD UP</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Building by placing a card of a higher rank on to a card of a
lower rank is permitted. Usually implies a difference of only one
ranking between the two cards. Example: Placing a Queen on a Jack
is good, but placing a Queen on a King is not.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>BUILD UP BY *</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Building by placing a card of a higher rank on to a card of a
lower rank by * is permitted. Example: If * is 2, placing a 10 on
an 8 is good, but placing a 10 on a 9 is not.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>BUILD UP OR DOWN</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Building by placing a card on to a card of one higher or one
lower rank is permitted. Example: Placing a Jack on a Queen or a 10
is good, but placing a 10 on a Queen is not.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>BUILDING</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>The ability to place a card (or group of cards) on another card.
In regards to rank, you can BUILD UP, BUILD DOWN, or BUILD UP/DOWN
BY *. In regards to suit/color, you can BUILD BY SUIT, BUILD BY
COLOR, BUILD BY ALTERNATE COLOR, BUILD BY ANY SUIT BUT OWN, or
BUILD REGARDLESS OF SUIT. Note that all games that build will
follow two of these rules, one from each list.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>The set of cards used. Most games use a STANDARD DECK, but games
that use a DOUBLE DECK, a JOKER DECK, or a STRIPPED DECK are not
uncommon.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>DOUBLE DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A deck of cards consisting of two STANDARD DECKS making a total
of 104 cards.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>FOUNDATION</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>If a game has a foundation, the game is usually won by placing
all the cards in the foundation pile(s).</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>JOKER DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A deck of cards consisting of a STANDARD DECK and two jokers
making a total of 54 cards.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>PILE</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A designated area where cards can exist.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>RANK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>The value of the card. Numbered cards usually have the rank of
the associated number. Aces can either be high or low. If high,
aces are ranked 1. If low, aces are ranked as 14. J, Q, and K are
usually ranked 11, 12, and 13 respectively. However, some games may
rank these cards as 10. In such a case, a high ace might be ranked
as 11.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>RESERVE</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Cards in the reserve are usually available to play anywhere.
Usually cannot be built on.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>SLOT</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>See PILE.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>STANDARD DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A 52 card deck. There are four suits of thirteen cards
each. Each suit contains an Ace, 2 through 10, Jack, Queen, and
King. These suits are usually Clubs, Spades, Hearts and Diamonds.
These suits can be grouped into two colors, usually black and red.
The Clubs and the Spaces are black while the Hearts and the
Diamonds are red. PySol allows the possibility of using
different decks. In this case, the new colors and/or suits are
substituted into this paradigm.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>STRIPPED DECK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A 32 card deck. There are four suits of eight cards
each. Each suit contains an Ace, 7 through 10, Jack, Queen, and
King.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>STOCK</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>See TALON.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>SUIT</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Four different kinds in a STANDARD DECK. Usually Clubs, Spades,
Hearts, and Diamonds.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>TABLEAU</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>The playing field, where the main action occurs. Usually allows
building.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>TALON</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>The remainder of the deck after all the original cards have been
dealt and are usually kept faced down.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>VALUE</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>See RANK.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>WASTE</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>A stack of cards face up, usually next to the TALON. Top card
usually in play.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>WRAP AROUND</b></dt>
<dd>
<p>In some games card sequences may wrap around.
When BUILDING UP this means you can place an Ace on a King.
When BUILDING DOWN this means you can place a King on an Ace.</p>
</dd>

<h1>General Flower Card Rules</h1>
<p>There are some characteristics common to all the games played
with Hanafuda cards. They are all played with one or more of the
Asian flower card decks. This deck is common in a number of Pacific
regions including Hawaii. There are twelve suits of four cards
each. The suits are associated with the twelve months of the year.
For a good explanation of what the suits are, try <a href=
"http://hanafubuki.org/">Graham Leonard's Hanafuda and Kabufuda
site</a>.</p>
<p>Most of the flower card solitaire games are played like western
deck games with minor changes. See the <a href=
"general_rules.html">General Rules</a> for basic instructions on
how to play solitaire. The object in most cases is to move all the
cards from the tableau to the foundations. Probably the most
difficult part of learning to play with hanafuda cards is learning
which cards belong in which suits and what their ranking is. The
ranking of the suits is sometimes as important as the ranking of
the cards in the suit. Try keeping this hanafuda help image
displayed where you can refer to it as you play. <img alt="" src=

<h1>General Hex A Deck Card Rules</h1>
The Hex A Deck is similar to a few card packs published in the
early 20th century that had sixteen cards in each suit. Those decks
were intended to be used when popular games of the period such as
Whist were played by five or more players. The extra cards meant
that each player had more cards in their hand which added interest
to the play. The Wizards in the Hex A Deck corresponds to the
Jokers in a regular pack. Their main purpose in most Hex A Deck
games is to show up at the worst possible time. Either that or at
the best possible time. They're very successful at doing that. In
games that use alternate color stacks they may be played as either
color. They have ranks from one through four and sometimes can only
be played in rank order. The ranks may or may not be indicated on
the cards. If they are not indicated there is usually a way to tell
which is which. The rank can be determined by comparing some
distinctive element of the images. The first rank Wizard will be
the most elaborate in some way such as the fattest, having the
tallest hat etc. They play on their foundation (if any) in
descending order of rank. That is first through fourth. In some
games the Wizards will not move off of the tableau until all the
other cards have been moved to the foundations. In some games they
don't actually enter into play at all. They are just there to make
things interesting. Which is to say make things difficult. And they
are very good at doing that.

<h1>How to play PySol</h1>
<h2>Mouse Usage</h2>
<p>Left mouse button:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Drag cards around</li>
<li>Click on the Talon to deal new cards</li>
</ul>
<p>Right mouse button (or double-click the left button):</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Drop cards to the Foundations</li>
<li>Quick play (if enabled)</li>
</ul>
<p>Middle mouse button (or Ctrl-click the right button):</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>View partially overlapped cards</li>
</ul>
<p>Ctrl-click the left mouse button:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Highlight all matching cards on the table</li>
</ul>
<p>Shift-click the left mouse button:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Highlight all cards with the same rank.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Two-handed play</h2>
<p>Put three fingers of one hand on '<i>A</i>' (auto drop),
'<i>S</i>' (undo) and '<i>D</i>' (deal). You can also reach
'<i>R</i>' (redo) from there.</p>
<p>Left-handed people may prefer using '<i>L</i>' (auto drop),
'<i>K</i>' (undo) and '<i>J</i>' (deal). <!--
<h2>Point-and-Click play</h2>
<p>
If you prefer Point-and-Click over Drag-and-Drop you can enable
<i>Quick play</i> and use the right mouse button. See below.
--></p>
<h2>Automatic play</h2>
<p>Note that automatic play can spoil the gameplay, so purists
should not enable any option but maybe <i>Auto face up</i>. Also,
some games disable certain features as they would be trivial
otherwise.</p>
<p>Auto face up</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Automatically face up all cards.</li>
</ul>
Auto drop
<ul type="disc">
<li>Automatically drop cards to the Foundations.</li>
</ul>
Auto deal
<ul type="disc">
<li>Automatically deal cards to the Waste stack if it is
empty.</li>
</ul>
Quick play
<ul type="disc">
<li>Use the right mouse button to move piles around quickly. The
logic involved is not too clever on purpose (i.e. it does not
consult the hint system).</li>
</ul>
<h2>The animation is too slow...</h2>
<p>Unfortunately the Tcl/Tk toolkit lacks a sprite concept, so
there is a lot of (invisible double-buffered) redraw going on when
dragging cards around.</p>
<p>Disabling <i>Card shadow</i>, <i>Shade legal moves</i>,
background table tiles and sound will somewhat improve the display
speed.</p>
<h2>The table tiles look strange</h2>
<p>Background table tiles should only be enabled when using a
true-color video mode - otherwise they may look bad because of
dithering.</p>
<p>BTW, you can add your own background tiles by copying the images
to the main <i>data/tiles</i> or your home <i>~/.PySolFC/tiles</i>
directory. <!-- They must be in GIF or PPM format. --></p>
<h2>Some notes about scoring</h2>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Scoring only begins after you make your first move. Also, if
you undo all your moves back to the start the game won't score
either.</li>
<li>You will lose a game if you consume a hint or start demo
mode.</li>
<li>You can restart any time to get another chance to win this
game.</li>
<li>If you don't want to score a lost game you can temporarily
change the player options.</li>
<li>Loaded games don't count.</li>
<li>If you win a game without using <i>Undo</i>, <i>Quick play</i>
and any other of the assist functions you will be given special
awards. <!--
<li> There are no score values in PySol - you win a game, or you lose it.
And don't even think about asking me to implement this nonsense - get
a nice pinball game if you're a highscore freak...
--></li>
<li>And finally always remember that this is a <b>Patience</b>
game. Relax and enjoy.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Undocumented key bindings</h2>
<ul type="disc">
<li><i>Space</i> - Deal</li>
<li><i>S</i> - Undo</li>
<li><i>Backspace</i> - Undo</li>
<li><i>Ctrl-A</i> - Auto drop and face up cards in one step</li>
<li><i>Ctrl-B</i> - Change card background</li>
<li><i>Ctrl-H</i> - Show internal rating when giving a hint</li>
<li><i>Ctrl-I</i> - Change table tile</li>
<li><i>Ctrl-N</i> - Start a new game with the next game number</li>
<li><i>Ctrl-P</i> - Change player name</li>
<li><i>Ctrl-U</i> - Play the next music song</li>

<h1>Introduction</h1>
<p>"Why yet another solitaire game ?" you may ask. The answer is
simple...</p>
<h3>PySol highlights</h3>
<ul>
<li>currently supports more than 1000 distinct solitaire games</li>
<li>based upon an extensible solitaire engine</li>

<h1>Akbar's Conquest</h1>
Braid type. Two decks. Two redeals.
<h3>Object</h3>
Move all cards to the Foundations.
<h3>Quick description</h3>
Similar to <a href="braid.html">Braid</a> played with two Mughal
<a href="../ganjifa.html">Ganjifa</a> decks.
<h3>Rules</h3>
Game play is like Braid. In this variation there are two Braid
stacks that each have their own set of Braid reserve stacks. The
game lay out starts with the sixteen foundations in the outer most
columns. The next two columns inwards are the eight Braid reserves.
Then there are two columns with four general reserves each. The
inner most two columns are the two Braid stacks. Each Braid starts
with sixteen cards. When one of the Braid reserves becomes open the
card at the top of the corresponding Braid will be moved there.
When all the cards from one of the Braids are removed a card from
the other Braid will be used.
<p>The game is named after the reputed inventor of a twelve suited
Ganjifa deck of singular splendor. It was engraved on ivory and
hand painted by court artisans. No cards from this pack are known
to still exist.</p>
<h3>Strategy</h3>
Build sequences on the rows that will play when the correct card
turns over from the talon. This game type requires careful strategy

<h3>Rules</h3>
Cards will play on the tableau in descending rank order without
regard to suit. They can only be moved to the single foundation
when a complete suit of twelve cards is finished and only in
ascending suit order. The suit of the Fish Incarnation is first,

foundation, press (a)uto or play with auto drop enabled and all
twelve cards will move there in order. Four cards are dealt to each

stacks to either side of the foundation will take one card each.
Cards on the reserves may only be played to the rows.

<h1>Blue Moon</h1>
<p>Montana type. 1 deck. 2 redeals.</p>
<h3>Object</h3>
<p>Group all the cards in sets of 13 cards in ascending sequence by
suit from Ace to King.</p>
<h3>Quick Description</h3>
<p>Just like <a href="montana.html">Montana</a>, but the Aces are
moved to the left.<br />
Gameplay is completely equivalent.</p>
<h3>Rules</h3>
<p>This 52-card solitaire starts with the entire deck shuffled and
dealt out in four rows. The aces are then moved to the left end of
the layout, making 4 initial free spaces. You may move to a space
only the card that matches the left neighbor in suit, and is one
greater in rank. Kings are high, so no cards may be placed to their
right (they create dead spaces).</p>
<p>When no moves can be made, cards still out of sequence are
reshuffled and dealt face up after the ends of the partial
sequences, leaving a card space after each sequence, so that each
row looks like a partial sequence followed by a space, followed by
enough cards to make a row of 14.</p>

<h1>Braid (Der Zopf)</h1>
<p>Napoleon type. 2 decks. 2 redeals.</p>
<h3>Object</h3>
<p>Move all cards to the foundations.</p>
<h3>Rules</h3>
<p>This game is somewhat harder and requires thoughtful
strategy.</p>
<p>The layout consist of a Braid of 20 cards, two groups of four
helper fields, four braid fields (each showing a picture of a
braid), the waste pile, and the eight foundations. The first card
automatically dealt to a Foundation sets the beginning value for
all foundations, and an indicator displays the value of that
card.</p>
<p>You choose whether the sequences on the foundations will be
ascending or descending, and your choice is displayed in an
indicator. The choice is made when you place the first card on a
foundation which is not the already-determined base card. It must
follow suit and must have a numerical value of either one more or
one less than the base card. Ace is considered one higher than
King, and at the same time one less than Two.</p>
<p>You may place cards on the foundation from anywhere on the
table, including the end of the Braid. The eight helper fields can
be filled from the waste pile but not from the Braid or the braid
fields. When you move a card from a braid field to the foundation,
that field is automatically filled with the last card on the Braid
itself.</p>
<p>In going through the talon, you are limited to three rounds, and
an indicator reports on that status.</p>
<h3>Strategy</h3>
<p>You can use the helper fields to temporarily store cards you
expect to use soon, and you can leave them open until the right
card comes up from the Talon.</p>
<h3>History</h3>
<p>This is a solitaire variant of German origin.</p>

<h1>Bridget's Game</h1>
Hex A Deck game type. 2 decks. 1 redeal.
<h3>Object</h3>
Move all cards to the Foundations.
<h3>Quick description</h3>
Similar to <a href="larasgame.html">Lara's Game</a> with sixteen
rows, one redeal and <a href="../hexadeck.html">Hex A Deck</a>
variations.
<h3>Rules</h3>
Refer to the description of the deal in Lara's Game. The
differences are that the cards are dealt to seventeen piles instead
of fourteen and if a dealt card is of rank eleven or over one card
is dealt to the talon. Otherwise the dealing rules are the same.
<p>Play is the same as Lara's Game with two exceptions. The first
exception is that there is one redeal. When the talon is empty
after the first round the cards are gathered up from the tableau
and dealt to the rows without being shuffled using the same dealing
rules as in the first round.</p>
<p>The other exception is the extra reserve stack just to the right
of the rows and the top foundations. This reserve stack has the
potential to save a game that would otherwise be lost. The way it
works is this. When empty it will accept any Wizard card, but only
from a foundation. Once a Wizard has been played on it, it will
accept one card only from any row stack. Once played on the stack,
cards can only be remove from it to a foundation.</p>
<h3>Strategy</h3>
Don't play on the extra reserve stack unless you are sure the top
card will play to a foundation soon.
<h3>Notes</h3>
This game is dedicated to the memory of Bridget Bishop, hanged as a
witch on June 10, 1692 in Salem Massachusetts, U. S. A. and to the
nineteen other victims of that notorious witch hunt.

<h3>Rules</h3>
<p>Canfield is played with one deck. The object is to build all

card dealt into there (varies from game to game), all in the same

<p>The tableau consists of four piles, starting with one card each.

<li>Red cards may be only played on black cards, and black only on
red.</li>
<li>Only the next smaller card may be played, so that the stacks
are in descending sequence except when the previous card is an Ace,

<li>You may not move parts of a sequence except the top card.</li>

<li> You may not move parts of a sequence except the top card.
<li> Empty spaces in the tableau will be filled automatically from
the reserve (the pile below the talon) until it is exhausted. When
the reserve is exhausted, the empty spaces can be filled with any
card.
</ul>
<p>
When there are no more possible moves, click on the talon. Three
cards will be moved from the talon to the waste pile directly to its
right.
<h3>Notes</h3>
<p>
The auto-solver is hopeless. Don't believe the hints. They tend to
be right but it doesn't figure everything out (there may be valid
moves that it won't guess).

Move all cards to the Foundations.
<h3>Quick description</h3>
Similar to <a href="klondike.html">Klondike</a> with <a href=

<h3>Rules</h3>
Game play is like Klondike. The rows build down in rank in
alternate color. Any card or sequence may be played on an empty
row. The Wizards will play in their proper rank position on the
tableau regardless of color. While two or more Wizards will play on
top of each other, the stack must still be of alternating colors to
be a movable sequence. Cards are dealt from the talon one at a
time. There is no redeal. Cards may be played from the foundations.
<h3>Strategy</h3>
The Wizards will not play to their foundation until all the suit
cards are on theirs. That can make the end game a bit of a puzzle.
Use an empty row to move them out of the way.

<h1>Daddy Longlegs</h1>

<h3>Object</h3>
<p>Group all the cards into four sets of 13 cards by suit in
ascending sequence from Ace to King.</p>
<h3>Rules</h3>
<p>Cards are dealt four at a time, one card into each of four
piles. A card can be moved onto the end of another pile, if it is
the same suit and follows in sequence. The rest of the pile moves
with the card. Only an Ace (with the rest of its pile) can move to
an empty space.</p>
<p>At any time, you can deal more cards by clicking on the talon.
One card will be added to each of the playing piles.</p>
<h3>History</h3>

implemented this game many times under the name of "Deal Four" as
an exercise when learning new programming languages.</p>

<h1>Double Grasshopper</h1>
<p>Tarock type. 2 deck. 1 redeal.</p>
<h3>Object</h3>
<p>Move all cards to the foundations.</p>
<h3>Rules</h3>
<p>The tableau consists of one reserve stack, two Trumps only row
stacks, and nine row stacks. Twenty-eight cards are dealt to the
reserve stack and one card each to the row stacks. When a row stack
is emptied it must be filled from the reserve stack first. When the
reserve stack is empty any card can be played on an empty row
stack. The Trumps only stacks are left empty and can be played on
at will. The row stacks build down in rank by alternate colors. The
Trumps can be played as either color. The Trumps only row stacks
also build down in rank. They will accept a stack of cards that
contains suit cards as long as the bottom card is a Trump. The
foundations build up in rank by suit.</p>
<h3>Strategy</h3>
<p>With skillful play and a bit of luck it's possible to sweep this
one without needing the redeal. The first priority is to empty the
reserve stack. Once that's done try to keep one or more row stacks
open. Play high rank cards on the rows and build down on them. The
same goes for the Trumps only rows.</p>
