Foundations

• Build up in suit from Ace to King.

• Cards cannot be moved from the foundations.

Tableau piles

• The top card of each pile can be played onto another tableau pile or onto the foundations.
• Groups of cards (regardless of sequence) may be moved as a unit from one pile to another.
• When a face-down card is exposed, it will automatically be turned face up.
• Empty piles can only be filled with an exposed King or with a group of cards (regardless of sequence) headed by a King.
