Golf (Relaxed) Solitaire

Golf Relaxed is a variation of Golf Solitaire where card wrapping is allowed, and the game starts with an empty foundation pile, making it slightly easier to win.

How to Play Golf Solitaire

Rules

The rules are the same as in standard Golf Solitaire, with one key difference:

• Card wrapping is allowed - you can place an Ace on a King or a King on an Ace.
• Only the top card of tableau pile is playable. You can only move one card at a time.
• Cards cannot be moved to or within the tableau; tableau cards can only be moved to the foundation.
• Cards can be moved to the foundation if they are one rank higher or lower than the top card of the foundation, regardless of suit.
• If no moves are possible, draw a card from the stock pile and place it on the foundation.

Winning

The game is won when all cards have been moved from the tableau to the foundation, regardless of any remaining cards in the stock.

Setup

Golf Relaxed setup is practically the same as original Golf, but the foundation starts empty:

• The game uses a single standard 52-card deck.
• 35 cards are dealt face up into 7 tableau piles, with 5 cards in each pile.
• There is only one foundation pile, which starts empty at the beginning of the game.
• The remaining 17 cards form the stock pile, which is placed face down.
