Solution to #54
Play these moves from the start and the deal comes out. Columns are 1–8 from the left and the free cells are a–d; each line says which card goes where. A move of several cards shows the first and last card of the run (9♠–7♥).
52 of the 109 moves are faded — they send a card home. Skip any your game has already sent there.
