![]() Meanwhile, you’ll notice that there will be a couple of 9s, a few 8s, and a 7 that will be in place over the course of a few moves. So you see a 10 and you discard it in the pile. If the current face up card in the waste pile is a Jack, see what other cards are available once you choose the best card in either value, as long as it’s ascending or descending. One strategy in particular could be as follows: This can be the equivalent of finding the best angle for your shot while at the same time, figuring out which way the wind is blowing. The strategy here of course is to observe which cards are available to transfer from tableau to waste pile. Likewise, in the game of golf itself, it is rare for a golfer to score a hole-in-one. While clearing out the entire tableau is doable, it is quite rare to accomplish this. The value of the remaining cards are irrelevant. The less number of cards are on the tableau, the better your score. Your final score is determined by how many cards are left on the tableau. The object of playing regular golf is to get the lowest score possible to win the game. To keep score, it takes on the same scoring process as it’s namesake. If you reach the final card of the waste pile and are unable to build on the pile with the cards left on the tableau, the game is over. You can repeat the process until every card in the tableau is discarded in the waste pile. Likewise, the Ace is considered the lowest value card and you will need a 2 in order to keep the sequence going. Since the King is considered the highest value card, you have to use a Queen in order to continue the sequence. Going back to the Jack example, let’s use the following example sequence:įace up card in waste pile : Q-K-Q-J-10-9-8-7-8-9-10-J You can even do this in the following pattern. If you are unable to find a card that is in either an ascending or descending value of the face up card in the waste pile, then you must draw another card. The object is build out the face up card in the waste pile using cards from the tableau. Which means if the Jack is a “Jack of Hearts”, you can lay down either a 10 of Diamonds or a Queen of Spades. Colors and suits are irrelevant in the Golf Solitaire. For example, if the face up card in the waste pile is a Jack, the ascending card is a Queen while the descending card is a 10. At this point, any card from the first row of seven can be placed in the waste pile if it follows either an ascending or descending card value. To begin, one card should be drawn from the draw pile and must be left face up. In the traditional rules of Golf Solitaire, this is disallowed. In a variation of golf solitaire, you can be allowed to “turn a corner” by building a King on an Ace or vice versa. The remaining 17 cards will serve as your draw pile.Īny card that you transfer must be one number up (ascending) or down (descending) from the card that is face up in the waste pile. Altogether, there should be thirty-five (35) cards face up right in front of you. ![]() Unlike Classic Solitaire where the cards in the first row are face up and the other four are face down, all five cards in each row are facing upward. One thing you’ll notice about Golf Solitaire is all seven rows of cards are laid out. Of course, like the name itself, this game only requires one person to play. ![]() ![]() With some patience and sharpening with skill, you can master this type of Solitaire game. If you’re familiar with the game of golf, you’ll understand some of the references that are used in the game of Golf Solitaire itself. Other notable differences are how to keep score in this type of Solitaire and having to deal more with skill as opposed to luck. ![]() Another popular variation is Grandfather’s Clock. This is one of the more interesting versions of Solitaire.
