You can build tableau rows down by alternate color. When building tableau piles, you can move more than one card if they constitute the tableau sequence.
You can place the free card of a row to the foundations, and a free reserve card either to the foundations or to the tableau piles.
In Figure, to free A
, you can place 5
on 6,

from reserve to the free tableau space.
Empty spaces in the tableau can be filled from the reserve. After the reserve is exhausted, any card or any descending sequence of cards can be played there.
The stock can be reused two times.
