Play Klondike Two Redeals Solitaire Free Online

Klondike Two Redeals Solitaire

Klondike Two Redeals gives you three total passes through the stock pile (initial deal plus two redeals) with a three-card draw. This is closer to the traditional casino ruleset — the triple draw tests your card-counting ability while two redeals provide just enough second chances to keep most deals theoretically winnable. A well-balanced challenge for intermediate players.

How to Play Klondike Two Redeals Solitaire

Layout

28 cards are dealt into 7 tableau columns (1 card in the first column, 2 in the second, up to 7 in the last). Only the top card in each column is face-up. The remaining 24 cards form the stock pile. Four empty foundation piles sit at the top.

Objective

Move all 52 cards to the four foundation piles, building each from Ace to King by suit.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Look for any Aces on the tableau — move them to a foundation pile immediately.
2. Build on tableau columns in descending order with alternating colors (e.g. black 6 on red 7).
3. Click the stock pile to draw cards (1 or 3 at a time depending on the variant) to the waste pile.
4. Play the top waste pile card onto tableau columns or foundations if it fits.
5. When you uncover a face-down card, it flips face-up automatically.
6. Move Kings (with their stacks) into empty tableau columns.
7. Build foundations up by suit: Ace, 2, 3 … Queen, King.
8. Win when all four foundations are complete (Ace through King in each suit).

Klondike Two Redeals Tips and Strategies

Count cards across all three passes. Know which stock groups contain cards you need and time your plays to access them. The three-card draw means you'll only see every third card per pass, so spread your foundation building across all three cycles rather than rushing. Empty columns are especially valuable since stock access is limited.

Scoring System

In Klondike, moving a card from the waste pile to a tableau pile earns 5 points. Placing a card on a foundation scores 10 points. Turning over a face-down tableau card earns 5 points. Recycling the waste pile in Turn-1 costs -100 points. In Vegas scoring, you pay $52 for the deck and earn $5 per foundation card — the goal is to profit.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The biggest mistake in Klondike is moving cards to foundations too early. Keep low cards available for building tableau sequences. Avoid emptying columns unless you have a King ready to fill the space. In Turn 3, plan three cards ahead since you can only access every third card in the waste pile.
