Goal
Complete all twelve eight-card rank piles and all eight single-jack slots, placing all 104 cards, to win.
Starting layout
Use two decks. Turn the first card onto the waste to set the starting suit for all twelve rank piles. The other 103 cards form the stock. Eight separate slots hold jacks.
How to play
Play only the waste top. Start each rank pile with its indicated rank in the first card’s suit. Add cards of that same rank in alternating colors, up to eight cards per pile. Each separate jack slot holds one jack of any suit. Draw one card onto the waste. Turn the exhausted waste over once without shuffling. There is no tableau building, moving between foundations or withdrawing completed cards.
