Play the opening in this order

  1. Scan the whole board for Aces, Twos, and the low cards buried deepest.
  2. With no cells available, plan two or three tableau moves before committing the first card.
  3. Build downward in alternating colors: for example, a black 9 may go on a red 10.
  4. Any single card or legal sequence may enter an empty column.
  5. A legal sequence may move together. The limit is (empty cells + 1) × (empty columns + 1).
  6. Release low cards first and complete all 4 foundations from Ace through King.

Tips for a better deal

  • Prefer moves that uncover a low card or create working space over moves that only tidy the top row.
  • Empty columns are your only temporary workspace, so do not consume one without a follow-up move.
  • Before creating an empty column, decide which blocked sequence it will help release.
  • Send low cards to the foundations when safe, but do not bury a card still needed to build the tableau.
