PySol - Rules for Matrimony

# Matrimony

Two-Deck game type. 2 decks. 16 redeals.

### Object

Move all the cards to the foundations.

### Rules

One Jack and Queen of diamonds are dealt to the foundations. An additional card is dealt to each of sixteen tableau piles. There are two sets of foundations, one built down by rank from Jack to Queen, and the other built up from Queen to Jack, all turning the corner from King to Ace or Ace to King as necessary. Each set contains one foundation of each suit.

Cards from the tableau can be moved to appropriate foundations, but building on the tableau is not allowed. When there are no moves left, you can deal one card from the talon to each of the tableau piles.

Once the talon is empty, you are allowed additional redeals, by taking the pile in the bottom right, and dealing the cards from it to other tableau piles, one each, starting with the pile directly to the right of it (or the top left pile for the bottom right pile). After this, you can do the same for each tableau pile, going right to left, bottom to top, until you've redealt each pile once.

The game is won if all cards are moved to the foundations.
