History

Deuces is a game in the Busy Aces family.  Deuces is slightly harder to win than Busy Aces.  Although in the beginning the first card in each foundation is already played for you (unlike Busy Aces, where you must wait for all the aces to come out), because there are only 10 tableau piles rather than the 12 of Busy Aces, it is harder to win.

 

Deuces originally appeared under the name "Le Deux" in Le Livre Illustre des Patiences in 1860.
