Solitaire Rules

Foundations (8 piles: complete these piles to win the game)

Build the top foundations down in suit (for example, a 7 can be played on a 8) from the base card to the rank just above the base card until each pile contains 13 cards.
Build the bottom foundations up in suit (for example, a 5 can be played on a 4) from the base card to the rank just below the base card until each pile contains 13 cards.

Tableau (22 piles in 2 rows of 11 cards each)

Place cards from the stock on any of these piles in any suit and in any rank, as advantageous.
Each pile can contain up to 2 cards.
Once placed, a card cannot be moved.
The top card of each pile is available for play to the foundations.
Spaces are automatically filled from the stock.

Cells (or Reserve; 4 cells)

These are the "cells". These cells are storage (holding) locations for cards being played to the foundations and the tableau.
Cards in these cells can be moved to the foundations and the tableau.
Cells can only hold one card at a time.
