Divorce Solitaire

1 deck. Average. No redeal.

Divorce Solitaire uses one deck (52 cards). You also have 4 tableau piles. Kings and Queens are removed from the deck to form the 8 foundation piles.

The object of the game
To build the foundations down in suit by twos: Kings down to Aces, and Queens down to Twos.

The rules
You can move cards from the stock pile to the foundations and tableau piles. There are no restrictions on placing cards from the stock pile to the tableau piles. Only the top card of each pile is available for play on the Foundations. You cannot move cards from pile to pile.

There is no redeal.

The skill in this game is to decide which tableau pile to put each card in. You shouldn't block lower cards by the higher ones, unless it is absolutely necessary.
