Golf Solitaire: what to know before playing
Keep the active rule in mind. Remove all 35 tableau cards. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Check the relevant controls before continuing. For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping. Use another round to revisit a decision.
Seven columns of five, one stock pass. Free solo play, no wagering.
