Goal
Place all 104 cards in their court destinations to win: 22 hearts in the heart arrangement, 66 cards on the six suit foundations, eight jacks and eight kings. This is the royal-court Jubilee, not the other Jubilee game with alternating foundation ranks.
Starting layout
Use two decks. Place one queen of hearts in the center, deal six exposed tableau cards and keep 97 cards in stock. The other queen of hearts joins the center; hearts from ace through ten occupy their separate positions around it.
How to play
Build six non-heart foundations upward in suit from ace through ten, then queen. Collect all eight jacks separately and all eight kings separately. Cards in any court destination cannot return to play. Build tableau piles downward regardless of suit. A ten may also cover a queen, skipping a jack. Empty columns accept any card. Ordered groups can move if spare empty columns provide enough space: each spare doubles capacity, excluding the destination. Draw one waste card at a time; only its top is available. There is no redeal.
