Pyramid Solitaire: instructions and practice
Work at your own pace. Remove all 28 pyramid cards. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Use another round to revisit a decision. Take a moment to read the table. Only uncovered cards are selectable. Pairs total 13; a king removes alone. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
Pyramid, stock and waste; one stock recycle. Free solo play, no wagering.
