- Stock turns three cards at a time - only the top of the three is playable.
Strategy & tips
- Plan stock cycles in groups of three. Before each tap, count which third of the deck you're about to expose.
- Two foundations per suit means you can park duplicate ranks temporarily - use the parking trick to free buried Aces.
- Play aces and twos to the foundation immediately, but think twice before sending higher cards - you may need them in the tableau.
