1 Deck. Very Hard (<1%).  Mostly Luck.

 

Object

To move all the cards to the tableau.

 

Layout

9 tableau piles  - build down regardless of suit.  Only one card at a time may be moved.  Spaces are filled automatically from the stock.  At the start of the game 1 card is dealt to each pile.

 

stock (left, face down) - automatically fills spaces in the tableau.

 

Notes

The idea is to get all of the cards in play by grouping cards in piles down regardless of suit, which brings more cards into play via the empty spaces created.  The game is won if all cards are moved from the stock onto the tableau.
