Soo happy right now. Hard game. Harder than solitaire, imo

This is what you want to end up with -

KQQK
JXXJ
JXXJ
KQQK

X being blank in the end

How To Play -

* With your standard 52 card deck place the first 16 cards on the 'Board' looking like the above 'win condition'. Put the Face Cards in their spot if you draw them and fill in the rest with the lower cards

When you first start your 'Board' may look something like this -

K7Q9
J454
677J
KQQA

* Once you finish your first "Board" take pairs that add up to 10, or a Single 10.

Again, using the above board [X = Blank since you removed them]

A+9 = 10, so take those two away
6+4 = 10. so take those two away

K7Qx
J45x
x77J
KQQx

* Now draw from your deck and place the card you draw in an open slot [x]. Face cards HAVE to go into their location. If you don't have a spot, you lose the game. Continue until you have your "Board" filled agian

Example -

** I draw a 5 and place it below the Jack on the left -

K7Qx
J45x
577J
KQQx

** I draw another King and place it in it's location on the "Board"

K7QK
J45x
577J
KQQx

**I Draw a 2 and place it in the bottom Right

K7QK
J45x
577J
KQQ2

**I Draw a 7 and place it in the last blank spot

K7QK
J457
577J
KQQ2

* Then again you get rid of the pairs that add up to 10 [The two fives]

* If you ever "Draw" a face card and you can't put it in one of it's 4 locations you lose the game

* Get all the Face Cards in their locations and go through the deck and you win the game

Hope that makes sense, lmao. I'm drunk now

So.....you just....luck out and get sets that hit 10? Im not quite seeing how its being "played". The games preordained to be a win or a loss? I get how in Solitaire there are certain little tricks to help your chances of working through the deck, but what exactly do you get to choose to do in this game?

Luck is apart of it, but the same as every other game

The strategy being when and where to fill in the Face card slots when drawing. If you have 3 Queens already, it's more safe to fill the Queen spot before filling a King spot if you only have 1 of them already
