<h1>Mrs. Mop</h1>
|
|
<h3>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Mrs. Mop is a solitaire card game which is played using two decks of playing
|
|
cards. Invented by Charles Jewell, it is a distant relative of another
|
|
solitaire card game Spider where all of the cards are dealt. The game seems
|
|
easy at first, but when played, chances of winning are low.
|
|
<p>
|
|
First the cards are dealt into thirteen columns of eight cards each. The
|
|
player will then aim to form eight full suit sequences of 13 cards each. Every
|
|
sequence should run from King down to Ace.
|
|
<p>
|
|
To achieve this, the cards are built down regardless of suit. One card can be
|
|
moved at a time, unless there are two or more cards of the same suit forming a
|
|
sequence (such as 7-6-5-4 of spades) at which case they are moved as a single
|
|
unit.
|
|
<p>
|
|
When a suit sequence is formed on the same column, running from King down to
|
|
Ace (such as K-Q-J-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-A of clubs), the sequence is discarded.
|
|
This game is won when all eight such sequences are removed.
|
|
<p>
|
|
Like in Spider, it is generally a good idea for the player to built down in
|
|
suit whenever possible because the earlier this is done, the sooner a sequence
|
|
is removed, giving the player more space to maneuver.
