👋 Quick Rules Here! Double or Quits is a relaxing solitaire game with a little bit of math as well! Give it a try today and let me know if you win! How to Play Double or Quits Solitaire Shuffle and deal 7 cards face up to form your reserves Flip 1 Card start your foundation pile. Remaining cards form the stockpile. Build cards onto the foundation pile following a doubling pattern where the value doubles and decreases by 13 if necessary. (Ace = 1, J = 11, Q = 12) The pattern: A-2-4-8-3-6-Q-J-9-5-10-7-A-2... Play cards from the reserve onto the foundation pile following this pattern and ignoring suits. Immediately refill the reserve from the waste pile or from the stock if the waste pile is empty. Flip one card at a time from the stock into the waste pile, adding onto the foundation as able. When the stock pile runs out. Pick up the waste pile to form the new stock. You may do this two times total. Kings are worth nothing. If they enter the reserves, they stay there for the remainder of the game. IMPORTANT: if you begin the game with a King in one of the 7 reserve locations, remove it and addd it to the bottom of the stock pile and add another card to that location. Win: Get all 48 cards into the foundation pile with only the four kings remaining in the reserve.
