<h1>Bisley</h1>
|
|
<h3>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3>
|

<p>
|

Bisley is a solitaire card game which uses a deck of 52 playing cards. It is
|
|
one of the few one-deck games in which the player has options on which
|
|
foundation a card can be placed.
|
|
<p>
|
|
First the four aces are taken out and laid on the tableau to start the
|
|
foundations. Then four columns of three cards are placed overlapping each
|
|
other separately under the aces. After that, nine columns of four cards, also
|
|
overlapping each other, are dealt to the right of the aces and first four
|
|
columns. If the player decides to lay out all of the cards, he must make sure
|
|
that there are four rows of thirteen cards and the first four cards on the
|
|
first row should be the four aces.
|
|
<p>
|
|
Here is the method of game play:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Only the bottom cards are available for play. Thus, if the cards are
|
|
overlapping, it is the exposed card of each column; if the cards are laid out,
|
|
it is the card at the bottom each column.
|
|
<li>Only one card can be moved at a time.
|
|
<li>The cards on the tableau can be built either up or down by suit.
|
|
<li>Whenever a column becomes empty, it stays empty for the rest of the game.
|
|
<li>The foundations (the four aces) are built up by suit. However, whenever a
|
|
King is released and becomes available, it becomes a foundation and is placed
|
|
above its counterpart ace foundation to be built down, also by suit. The same
|
|
thing can be done for the three other kings. This rule also gives the player
|
|
an opportunity to place a card on one of the foundations of the same suit if
|
|
it can be placed on either of them.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The game is won when all cards end up in the foundations. It actually does not
|
|
matter where the ace and king foundations of each suit would meet and how many
|
|
cards the ace and king foundations of each suit will have. At the end of one
|
|
game for example, the <b>K</b><img src="../images/s.gif"> is the only one on
|
|
its foundation while the rest of spade cards are built on the <b>A</b><img
|
|
src="../images/s.gif">; the <b>A</b><img src="../images/c.gif"> remains
|
|
unbuilt because all club cards are built on the <b>K</b><img
|
|
src="../images/c.gif">; the <b>A</b><img src="../images/h.gif"> is built up to
|
|
<b>4</b><img src="../images/h.gif"> while the <b>K</b><img
|
|
src="../images/h.gif"> is built down to <b>5</b><img src="../images/h.gif">;
|
|
and the <b>A</b><img src="../images/d.gif"> is built up to
|
|
<b>8</b><img src="../images/d.gif"> while the <b>K</b><img
|
|
src="../images/d.gif"> is built down to <b>9</b><img src="../images/d.gif">.
|
|
In fact, the ace and king foundation of a suit can meet anywhere.
