How to play 3 Card Solitaire
  • 3-Card Solitaire is a skill game based on the popular game of Solitaire using the Vegas Rules and played using one deck of 52 cards.
  • The aim of the game is to reveal all the cards and place them in the four foundations at the top right hand side of the screen by suit, from Ace to King.
  • The Solitaire table consists of the following areas:

  • Stock Pile: The face-down deck in the top left corner of the screen. You can draw cards from the Stock Pile to the Play Deck by simply clicking on the deck.

  • Play Deck: The deck of face-up cards that are drawn from the Stock Pile, located on the right side of the Stock Pile.

  • Foundations: The four areas in the upper right area of the screen. All the cards in the game need to be placed in the foundations in order to finish the game and win the grand prize.

  • Column Stacks (or “Tableau”): The cards are dealt into these 7 areas at the beginning of the game.


  • Select your bet per card and click Deal. The following will happen:


  • A deck of 52 cards is shuffled. 28 of the cards are dealt randomly into seven column stacks from left to right. This is done until the first stack has one card, the second - two cards, the third - three cards and so on, until the seventh stack has seven cards. All the cards are dealt face down with only the top card in each stack is faced up.

  • The rest of the cards in the deck (24) are faced down in the stockpile.

  • The purpose of 3-card Solitaire is to reveal all 52 cards and place them in order, from Ace to King by suit (♦♥♠♣) onto the four foundation stacks at the top right hand side of the screen - one for each suit. For example: A♥, 2♥, 3♥…K♥, A♣, 2♣, 3♣…K♣ and so on.
  • The first card to be placed on any empty foundation stack must be an Ace.

  • Each time you place a card in one of the foundations, you will receive a winning amount equal to X3 your initial bet per card (See the paytable below for more details). Your winnings will be updated in the “Total Wins” display box at the bottom left corner of the screen.


    Stacking the cards in the Column Stacks

  • The cards in the column stacks can be built down in descending order and by alternate colors

  • Only a King or a pile of cards with a King at the top can be placed on an empty column stack. Partial or complete piles can be moved from one column to the other if they are built down in descending order and by alternate colors. For Example, a 6♥ can be placed under a 7♣, a J♠ can be placed under a Q♦ and so on.


    Drawing cards from the Stock Pile

  • The cards from the stockpile are drawn 3 cards at a time into the play deck. All 3 cards are visible, but only the top card drawn is available. If a card is moved from the stockpile to the column stacks or to one of the foundations, the second card drawn will be available and so on.

    The cards you draw are listed in the “Card List” at the top of the screen.

  • If a drawn card can’t or hasn’t been used, 3 more cards can be drawn and so on until you have gone through all the cards in the stockpile.

  • After a pass through the stock pile is completed, you can click on the empty stock pile to turn over the cards and start a new pass.

  • There are only 3 passes allowed through the stockpile.

  • The number of cards left in the stockpile is displayed at all times underneath the stock pile.

  • The number of remaining passes allowed through the stockpile is displayed at all times in the indicators at the side of the stock pile.


  • You can use the “Undo” option to undo your last actions. “Undo” can be used up to the last move in which a card was revealed (i.e. a face down card was turned face up or in case cards were drawn from the stock pile).
  • You can end the game at any time by clicking “End Game & Collect”. Be sure you have gone through all the passes in the stock pile and that there aren’t any more legal moves you can make.
  • Once you choose to end the game your accumulated winnings will be updated in your cashier area and a new game will be available.
  • If all the cards on the table have been revealed and both the stock pile and the play deck are empty, the cards will be automatically transferred to the four foundations. In this case, the game was completed with maximum winnings (See the paytable below).
  • The paytable states the Win Rate for each card that is placed on the foundations according to the Bet per Card. The Win Rate is X3 than the bet:
