Goal
Build four same-suit foundations from ace to king. Move all 52 cards onto them to win.
Starting layout
Use one deck. Seed one foundation with an ace, arrange five single tableau cards in a cross, and keep 46 cards in stock.
How to play
Build tableau piles down by rank, regardless of suit. Move only one exposed card at a time; any available card may fill a gap. Draw one stock card onto the waste. Its top can build on the tableau or foundations. In this version there is no stock turnover, and foundation cards cannot be withdrawn.
