A practical guide to Golf Solitaire
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. Use another round to revisit a decision. Work at your own pace. Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
Seven columns of five, one stock pass. Free solo play, no wagering.
