Needed
52 card deck; three to eight players; poker chips
Ante
Each player antes one chip into a middle pot before the cards are dealt.
Deal
All the cards are dealt out, one card at a time. It is okay if some players have one more card than others.
Objective
The object of the game is to be the first player to get rid of his/her cards each round. Players can play cards into the middle that build out from the 7s.
Card Rank

Highest to lowest - K, Q, J, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, A
Game Play
The 7s begin the foundation piles from which all other cards are built. The player left of the dealer is first to play. A 7 has to be the first card played. Once a 7 is played, a 6 or 8 in the same suit can be played off of that 7.
Cards continue to be played in sequence from the available cards on the middle foundation piles. Only one card is played per turn. If a player cannot play a card into the middle, he/she pays one chip into the middle pot.
The round is over once a player plays his/her last card. All other players pay the pot chips equal to the number of cards still in their hand at the end.
The winner of the round is awarded all the chips in the middle pot. The winner is the player with the most chips after an agreed upon amount of deals.
Rule
If a player can make a play, the player must play.
Solitaire Rules
The different piles
There are four different types of piles in Solitaire. They are:
- The Stock: The pile of facedown cards in the upper left corner.
- The Waste: The faceup pile next to the Stock in the upper left corner.
- The Foundations: The four piles in the upper right corner.
- The Tableau: The seven piles that make up the main table.

The setup
The Tableau piles are numbered from 1 to 7, pile 1 has 1 card, pile 2 has 2 cards and so on. The top card on each Tableau pile is turned face up, the cards below are turned face down. The cards that are left after setting up the Tableau are placed in the Stock, face down. The Waste and the Foundations start off empty.
The objective
Card Game 7 Up
To win Solitaire, you must get all the cards onto the Foundation piles. The Foundations are ordered by suit and rank, each Foundation has one suit and you must put the cards onto them in the order Ace 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Jack Queen King. To get there, you can use the moves described below.
Allowed moves
- Flip cards from the Stock onto the Waste. You can flip either 1 or 3 cards from the Stock onto the Waste. The number can be configured in Options.
- Move a card from the Waste onto the Foundations. If the top card of the Waste can go onto one of the Foundations then you can drag it there.
- Move a card from the Waste onto the Tableau. You can move the top card of the Waste onto one of the Tableau piles.
- Move a card from a Foundation back onto the Tableau. You can move the top card of a Foundation back onto the Tableau. This isn't allowed in all Solitaire versions, but we allow it here :)
- Move one or more cards from one Tableau pile to another. You can move a face up card on the Tableau onto another Tableau pile, if that pile's top card is one higher than the moved card and in a different color. For example, you could move a red 6 onto a black 7. Or, if you have red 6, black 5, red 4 face up on one tableau, you can move all of them at the same time onto a Tableau with a black 7. If you have an empty Tableau pile then you can only place a king there.
- You can flip a face down Tableau card. If you have moved a face up card from a Tableau pile so now the top card is face down, then you can click the face down card and it will be flipped and shown face up.
- You can move a Tableau card onto the Foundations. You can do this manually if you need to clear some space on the Tableau. You can either drag the cards onto the Foundation, or just double click it and then it will go there by itself. When all cards on the Tableau are turned up, and all cards from the stock are finished then the game will automatically move all the Tableau cards onto the Foundations, since at that point you are guaranteed to win the game.
- You can Undo as many times as you like. The game offers unlimited undos. Each Undo counts as a new move though, so if you're trying to win the game in as few moves as possible you should be careful about how many undos you use.
Time and Moves

The game counts the moves you make, and measures the time it takes to finish the game, so you can compete against your previous best games if you want. Currently there is no scoring like in the Windows Solitaire, if someone is interested in this then contact me at admin@cardgames.io and I'll see what I can do.
