Rules for Unlimited Solitaire
Play UnlimitedDescription:
An easier variant of Interchange, in which we are allowed unlimited redeals
Cards:
Two standard decks. Since colors don't matter, politaire substitutes a four-color deck of cards..
Goal:
Move all cards to the foundation.
Foundation:
Eight foundation piles.Any ace may be moved to any empty pile in the foundation.
A card may be added onto a foundation pile if it is one higher than the old top card of the pile and of the same suit.Thus, the only card that could be played on a 10♣ would be a J♣. No pile may contain more than 13 cards.
Once on the foundation, cards may not be moved back off..
Tableau:
Seven tableau piles of seven cards each, splayed downward. The even numbered cards in each pile are dealt face down, all others are face up.A card may be added onto a tableau pile if it is one lower than the old top card of the pile and of the same suit.Thus, the only card that could be played on a J♠ would be a 10♠.
Cards on the tableau that are not under another card are available for play onto the foundation or any other tableau pile.
Empty spaces in the tableau may be filled by kings only.
Groups of cards in sequence down may be moved from one tableau column to another if all cards are of the same suit.
Stock and Waste:
The remaining cards form the stock and there is one waste pile.Each time you click on the stock, one card will be dealt from the stock to the waste. Unlimited passes through the stock are permitted.
The top card of the waste is available for play to the tableau or the foundation.
