Paganini uses aces and ranks six through king, giving each suit nine cards. Arrange one complete suit in each row’s first nine positions, leaving its last space empty.
A gap can use either neighbor
An ace belongs in an empty leftmost position. Elsewhere, insert the suited successor of the card on the left or the suited predecessor of the card on the right. In this short deck, six follows ace. Cards cannot be placed on occupied spaces, and there is no stock or reshuffle.
Follow a gap toward the ace
Before filling a space, see where the moved card will leave its next gap. That new opening may release a six for an ace-led row or connect two suited stretches. Compare both neighbors: using the right-hand clue can open a move the left-hand clue alone would miss.
