Pyramid Solitaire: learn through an example
Use the rule sheet as a reference. Remove all 28 pyramid cards. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Before making a move, check the cards in view. Only uncovered cards are selectable. Pairs total 13; a king removes alone. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
Pyramid, stock and waste; one stock recycle. Free solo play, no wagering.
