<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal"><FONT FACE="Trebuchet MS, sans-serif"><FONT SIZE=3 STYLE="font-size: 13pt">The
cards are dealt into seven stacks. The number of cards increases by
one for each stack. The first stack contains one card and the last
contains seven. All the cards are face down except the last card in
each stack. A card can be moved from one stack to another if it is
the next card in descending order with King being high and Ace being
low regardless of suit. But a stack of cards can only be moved if
they are in descending order and the same suit. Once moves are
exhausted seven cards can be dealt one on top of each stack ( The
last deal is an exception cards are only added to the first three
stacks. ). Cards cannot be dealt if there is an empty stack.</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
object of the game is to get all four suits in descending order from
King to Ace. Once a suit is complete it can be sent home or moved to
one of the four empty slots at the top of the board. Once all fourxs
suits are sent home the game is over.</FONT></FONT></P>

stacked on one another. So, the total number of points available is
48 or 12 for each suit. The score along with the number of deals
remaining are indicated in the status bar at the bottom of the game

matching suit, non-matching suit, or an empty stack in that order. In
some cases it might be necessary to drag and drop the cards to move
them to the exact stack desired. ). When all moves are exhausted, the
next set of cards can be dealt on top of the current cards by
clicking on the deck in the upper left corner of the board. </FONT></FONT>
