- <para>
- Cards in the tableau are built down by suit. Cards can only be
- moved singly to another Tableau pile. However, to ease monotony,
- groups of cards can be moved to Foundation. An empty slot in the
- Tableau is filled automatically from the Reserve. If the Reserve is
- empty, an empty slot can be filled by a card from the Waste or from
- another Tableau pile.
- </para>
- <para>
- The Reserve exists mainly to deal cards into empty slots of the
- Tableau. However, when there is only one card left in the Reserve,
- it will become visible and is in play.
- </para>
- <para>
- Cards are flipped from the Stock to the Waste singly. When the
- Stock is empty, move all cards in Waste back to the Stock,
- maintaining order. You can go through the deck three times.
- </para>
- <para>
- Foundations are built up in suit from the base card (first card
- dealt to first Foundation). New Foundations are started when a card
- of the same rank as the first card placed during the dealing period
- are placed on empty Foundation piles. Aces are placed on Kings, and
- twos on Aces. Cards in Foundations are not in play.
