Each of seven columns starts with two hidden cards and one exposed card. A 31-card stock adds new cards directly to the tableau rather than to a waste pile.
Deal only after checking the board
- Build down in alternating colors. Ordered alternating-color runs can move together.
- Only kings or king-led runs fill empty columns. Empty columns do not prevent a stock deal here.
- The stock adds one card per column, with a partial final row and no redeal.
Release the two hidden cards early
Four suited foundations build from ace through king. Before adding a stock row, look for a run move that exposes a hidden card or releases a foundation successor. Dealing can provide a missing receiver, but it also covers the current column tops.
