A practical guide to TriPeaks Solitaire

Look at the complete hand before deciding. Remove all three peaks from the tableau. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Take an exposed card one rank above or below the waste top. Ace and king connect in this edition. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
