Klondike Solitaire
In Klondike Solitaire, cards are dealt to the
deck 3-at-a-time and the player can pass
through the deck indefinitely. Twenty (20)
points are deducted for each pass through
the deck after the player has gone through
the deck three (3) times.
Vegas Solitaire
Vegas Solitaire follows the same rules as
Klondike Solitaire, but in this game you will
begin with 500 points. Points are accumu-
lated between consecutive games. Each
time you start a new game, you will lose 52
points (one point for each card in the
deck).
You will win 5 points each time you move a
card from a card stack or the deck to a suit
stack.
You will lose 5 points each time you move
a card from the suit stack back down to a
card stack.
You may only pass through the deck once,
and deck cards are turned over one (1) at a
time.
MOVING THE CARDS
The object of Solitaire is to build four (4)
Suit Stacks – from Ace to King – with each
stack containing only the cards of a partic-
ular suit. The player will accomplish this by
drawing a card from the deck and moving
it to the card stacks or suit stacks. Build
the card stacks in descending order, alter-
