 **==================**

 **a. How to Play Golf Patience**
 **----------------------------**

        There are many variations of the game of Solitaire,
        Golf Patience is one variation.

        Each game round starts with thirty cards dealt face
        upwards to the board in six rows of five cards each
        overlapping. The first card of the stock is dealt
        face upwards to the board to begin the heap.

        The object of the game is to eliminate all cards from
        the links by packing on the exposed card of the heap
        the exposed cards in the links. The cards may be packed
        in ascending or descending order, irrespective of suit,
        or direction until no more cards can be packed.

        If you click on the 'DEAL' button, the next card of
        the stock is dealt.

        The game is won if the player clears all the cards
        from the links.
