Golf

Also known as One Foundation

Goal

Move all cards to the waste stack.

How to play

Build on the waste stack in sequence either up or down regardless of suit.

Only the top card is available for play on the piles. When no more moves are possible, select the talon to deal a new card.

Sequences do not wrap around, i.e. only Twos may be placed on Aces and only Queens may be placed on Kings.

Playing tips

Save Twos for Aces and Queens for Kings.
