Getting started

The preliminaries are very straightforward. Each player shuffles the decks very thoroughly, and you cut for deal, with the lowest card dealing. The dealer gives their opponent and themselves 26 (or 20 if you want a shorter game) cards face-down. These cards are your reserve, or pay-off pile, which both players try to dispose of; you always turn the top card face-up, and it remains available for play during the game. The dealer takes the remainder of the cards, the stock, and deals five cards to each player, which form the player’s hand. The remaining stock cards sit in the middle of the table for the players to replenish their hands in due course. You can dispose of the reserve cards by putting them onto four communal foundation piles, built up from ace to queen, at the right moment. Each player can put cards onto the foundation piles, or onto waste piles, to which they each alone have access.
