Filling every cell

Four occupied cells leave almost no room to repair a bad sequence.

Building over low cards

A beautiful long run is a liability when it buries the ace or two that unlocks a foundation.

Parking without a plan

A temporary move becomes permanent when its destination is never considered.

Keep in mind

  • Leave a cell open.
  • Free low ranks first.
  • Give temporary cards a route home.
