Things You'll Need:
- 1 Deck of playing cards (Jokers removed)
-
Step 1
Shuffle the deck.
-
Step 2
Arrange 28 cards face up in a seven-row pyramid, dealing each row from left to right. Start with a top row of one card and end with the bottom row of seven cards.
-
Step 3
Place the remaining cards face down in a pile below the pyramid.
-
Step 1
Start removing pairs of cards from the bottom row whose combined value is 13, with Aces counting as one and Queens counting as 12. Kings may be removed on their own.
-
Step 2
Incorporate cards from the next row up when the two cards directly below them on either side are cleared away.
-
Step 3
Draw three cards from the face-down deck when no other solutions remain, and place them face-up below the pyramid. Incorporate these three cards into pairs, either with cards in the pyramid or among themselves.
-
Step 4
Draw three cards on top of the existing three drawn cards when no solutions remain. Only create pairs with the cards on top of the pile.
-
Step 5
Win the game by clearing all cards. The game is lost when all cards are drawn and no other pairs can be made.
