On the first foundation pile, any card of the same suit as the first card dealt may be played.

On the lower foundations piles, the first card played must be of the same rank as the first card in the first foundation.

Thereafter, you can only play cards to the lower foundations
when that rank already exists in the pile immediately above it.

Stock

Turn up one card at a time, from the stock to the waste, by clicking.
