Gentle finish
Stop 1: Klondike
Draw 1: the stock comes round again. In Draw 1 you can turn the stock as many times as you like, one card at a time. A card you pass over is not lost; it returns on the next pass, in the same order.
Play stop 1Stop 2: FreeCell
Know how many cards can move. You can move (free cells + 1) × 2 to the power of empty columns cards at once. When the destination is itself an empty column, count one fewer empty column.
Play stop 2Stop 3: Spider
Turn up face-down cards. Forty-four cards start face down. A move that turns one over is usually worth more than a move that only tidies a run.
