<sect2><title>Rules</title>
81
Cards in the Tableau are built down by alternating color. Groups of
82
cards can be moved. An empty pile in the Tableau can be filled with a
83
card whose rank is one lower than the base card or with a group of cards
84
starting with a card with this rank.
87
Cards are dealt from the Stock to the Reserve. Each deal places one
88
card on each pile of the Reserve.
91
The top card of each Reserve pile is always available for play on to
92
either the Tableau or the Foundation. There is no building on the
96
Foundations are built up in suit from the base card. New Foundations
97
are started when a card of the same rank as the base card is placed on
98
empty Foundation piles. Aces are
99
placed on Kings, and twos on Aces. Cards in Foundations are still in
100
play. Double clicking on a card will move it to the appropriate
101
Foundation pile if such a move is possible.
105

The deeper something is, the harder it is to get to. Try and move cards
119
out of the Reserve whenever possible.
