How to Play Solitaire Games
Introduction: Solitaire is a card game, generally played by just one person. There are actually hundreds of different solitaire games, each with its own set of rules and variations. This web site will describe many of the different games of solitaire. After one or more decks of cards are shuffled, and are deal out into a layout onto your desk or computer screen, cards are moved, according to the rules of the specific game, with the goal of moving all cards to the foundations (see definitions below), or with the goal that is specified in the rules of the game of solitaire being played. The sequence is generally the following: ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, jack, queen, and king of the same suit, but sometimes the sequence starts with a different card, and wraps around, e.g., 7, 8, 9, 10, jack, queen, king, ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Not all solitaire games may be won. Your chance of successfully winning a solitaire game depends on the specific game being played.
