Solitaire is a solitaire game played with the standard 52 card deck.
The object is to arrange cards of the same suit from ace to king.</FONT></FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal"><FONT FACE="Trebuchet MS, sans-serif"><FONT SIZE=3 STYLE="font-size: 13pt">The
board is setup with eight stacks of cards, four “freecells”, and
four home stacks. The goal is to move all cards to the home stacks in
ascending order from ace to king of the same suit. Cards are placed
one at a time in order on the home stacks. The eight stacks of cards
are dealt with the first four stacks containing seven cards and the
last four contains size cards. All cards in the eight stacks are
dealt face up. Cards can be moved between the stacks by placing red
cards on black cards in descending order from king to ace. But only
one card can be moved to a stack or freecell at a time.  A card can
also be played on the home stack, if it is an ace or the next card in
ascending order of a suit in one of the home stacks. Any card can be
placed in an empty freecell or an empty stack.  Play will continue
until all moves are exhausted or until all cards are moved to the
home stacks and the game is won. </FONT></FONT>
