Golf Solitaire: from controls to your first round
Take a moment to read the table. Remove all 35 tableau cards. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Use another round to revisit a decision. A clear plan starts with the current position. Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
Seven columns of five, one stock pass. Free solo play, no wagering.
Something to practise
