Understand the basics of Russian Solitaire

Take a moment to read the table. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Move any face-up card and its tail onto the next higher rank of the same suit. Kings fill empty columns. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

Yukon-style deal, same-suit building, no stock. Free solo play, no wagering.

An idea for your next attempt

Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Use another round to revisit a decision.
