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