Goal
Complete all eight thirteen-card foundations with all 104 cards to win.
Starting layout
Use two decks. Deal four face-up reserves of thirteen cards. Move every king found in those reserves to a separate foundation, retaining the other cards in order. Keep the remaining 52 cards in stock.
How to play
Only the exposed top of each reserve and the waste may move to a foundation. Do not build on reserves, move between reserves, or fill their gaps. Draw one card at a time. Turn the exhausted waste over twice without shuffling. Build eight foundations downward from king to ace by rank, ignoring suit; foundation cards cannot be withdrawn.
