Vegas Solitaire Rules in an easy step-by-step Tutorial
The Object of the Game
The object of the game of Vegas Solitaire is to win money. You do this by playing as many cards as possible to the Foundations. For each card played away, you will receive a payout based on your chosen bet.
Vegas Solitaire is played with a card deck with no jokers. If you manage to play 11 cards to the Foundations, you break even; any card after that is a win.
Vegas Solitaire Rules – Placing a Bet
Every game starts with placing a bet, whether you play for real money or use fictitious funds to play for fun. Start by selecting your bet amount. The betting screen will tell you how much you win for each card you play to the Foundations.
When playing Vegas Solitaire for real money, the betting stakes are always based on the following bet ratio:
- $52 redemption and $5 payout per card played on the Foundation.
- When you complete the game, you will receive 5x your original bet.
- In addition to the standard bets, it is possible to place side bets on Vegas solitaire.
There are two different side bets possible that can increase your winnings. These are placed before the cards are dealt:
- No Moves – When the player cannot make any moves.
- Red or Black – When all the cards on the Tableau are all red or black.
Vegas Solitaire Rules – Setup
Value of the Suits and Order of Play
According to the Solitaire rules, you can play the Suits as they appear. There is no priority or rule that you need to play a particular Suit first. In Solitaire, cards placed on the Foundation by suit go in ascending order; on the Tableau by descending order.
The order of the cards in Vegas Solitaire is:
Ascending order on the Foundation
These are placed by suit only, in this order:
Descending order on the Tableau
Alternating between red (Hearts & Diamonds) and black (Spades & Clovers)
Solitaire is a puzzle where you have to move the cards according to specific rules. Cards may only be moved when they are placed in descending order from one another. So a 10 gets played under a Jack, a Jack under a Queen, and a Queen under a King. In addition, there are also rules about moving entire or partial rows of cards. You can read how this works below.
Gameplay Rules
After the cards have been dealt, it is the player&#;s turn. Each of the seven rows will be built in descending order with alternating black and red suits. For example, a black five, red four, black three, and a red deuce (two.) This is done by playing the dealt card or moving one or more cards between rows.
Moving cards
The player may only move &#;face-up&#; cards that are exposed in any row or exposed on top of the Waste Pile, where dealt cards appear.
Payouts
When you have finished a game, all cards on the Foundation are paid out per card. When you have managed to get rid of all the cards, placing them all onto the Foundations, you win five times your bet. We refer you to the Vegas Solitaire Payout Table for a complete overview of all possible bets and payouts.
Vegas Solitaire Rules – Online Features
When playing Vegas Solitaire free online, the following additional rules apply:
Undo/Restore button
If you make a wrong move, you can use the Undo button.
- You may only use the undo/restore button once per turn to undo your last action.
- It is impossible to use the undo/restore button if your last action has cleared a card at the bottom of a row of the Tableau, and as a result, a new card was exposed. For instance, moving a card to another row reveals a new card for play. The undo/restore button cannot be used once this action has occurred.
Complete Function
When you press the &#;Complete&#; button, the game will be played automatically according to the best strategy for Vegas Solitaire. The AutoPlay feature will always try to complete the game as far as possible and generate the highest potential profit. However, as with manual play, the AutoPlay function is not guaranteed to finish the game.
End Game
With this button, you end the game immediately. Cards placed on the Foundation will be paid out with either money or points, depending on which game you play.
Hint Button
When you can&#;t go any further, you can use the Hint button to see if there are still possible moves according to the Optimal Strategy.
