Goal
On the final pass only the first holding column accepts cards. Complete all eight suit foundations with 104 cards to win.
Starting layout
Use two decks, eight empty foundations and four holding columns. Expose one stock card at a time and assign it to a foundation or holding column.
How to play
The ace homes follow suit in the order A, K, 2, Q, 3, J, 4, 10, 5, 9, 6, 8, 7. The king homes follow K, A, Q, 2, J, 3, 10, 4, 9, 5, 8, 6, 7. Only holding-column tops may go to foundations. No column transfers. Two redeals gather the unassigned card, then columns right to left, each bottom to top, without shuffling.
