Gold Mine

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

The foundations build up by rank in the same suit.

Cards are dealt from the stock three at a time. These cards may be moved to the foundations as appropriate, or to one of seven tableau piles. Tableau piles are built down by alternate color. Sequences of cards may be moved between tableau piles.

You may only go through the stock once. The game is won if all cards can be moved to the foundations.
