Klondike is a patient game (solitaire card game). In the US and Canada, Klondike is the most famous solitaire card game, to the greatest extent the use of the term "solitaire", in the absence of any additional qualification that determines which game, usually refers to Klondike. The game became famous at the end of the 19th century, named "Klondike" after Canadian territory where there was a gold rush. It is rumored that the game was made or popularized by prospectors in Klondike.

Rules
Klondike is played with a standard deck of 52 cards, without Jokers. After shaking, seven stacks of cards are placed from left to right. Each stack starts with one inverted card. From left to right, each stack contains one more card from the last. The first and the left stacks contain a single inverted card, the second stack contains two cards (one upside down, one upside down), the third contains three (two upside, one upside down), and so on, until the seven stacks containing seven cards (six upside down, one upside down). The rest of the cards make up the stock, and are placed face down on the top left of the layout.
The four foundations (rectangle of light at the top right of the image) are built by the suit of Ace (low in this game) to King, and the stack of tablo can be constructed by alternate colors. Each face-up card in a partial stack, or full stack, can be moved, as a unit, to another talon pile based on their highest card. Each empty stack can be filled with a King, or a stack of cards with the King. The goal of the game is to build four stacks of cards starting with Ace and ending with King, all the same suit, in one of four foundations, at which point the player will win. There are various ways to handle the rest of the deck from stock to talon, here are some:
- Flip three cards at once into the talon, unlimited on the deck pass.
- Flip three cards at once into the talon, with three cards passing the deck.
- Rotate one card at a time to the talon, with three cards passing the deck.
- Rotate one card at a time to the talon just once through the deck, and play it whenever possible.
- Flip one card at a time to the talon, unlimited on the deck pass.

Possible wins
For standard Klondike games, draw three cards at once and do not limit the number of re-deals, the number of possible hands more than 8 ÃÆ' - 10 67 , or 8 followed by 67 zeros. Approximately 79% of the game is theoretically won, but in practice, human players do not win 79% of the games played, due to missteps that cause the game to be won. If possible the cards from the foundation are moved back to the tableau, then between 82% and 91.5% theoretically can be won. Note that this result relies on complete knowledge of the positions of all 52 cards, which are not owned by players. Another recent study has found Draw 3, Re-Deal Infinite has a win rate of 83.6% after 1000 random games completed by a computer solver. The problem is that the wrong step can not be known whenever more than one movement is possible. The number of matches that skilled players can probabilistic expect to win at least 43%. In addition, some "unplayable" games where no cards can be moved to the foundation even at the beginning of the game; this occurs only 0.25% (1 in 400) of the hand being handled.
There are four types of hands: games that can be won, theoretically won games (players make choices that produce lost games, but do not know the correct choice because relevant cards are hidden), games that can not be won (no choice leads to the winnings), and games that can not be played.
There is a modified version of the game called "Mind Solitaire", in which the identity of all 52 cards is known. Since the only difference between the two games (Klondike and Thoughtful) is the knowledge of the location of the card, all the attentive game with the solution will also have a solution at Klondike. Similarly, all stalemate in Attention will be a dead end in Klondike. However, the theoretical opportunity to win a standard non-Thought Klondike game is currently not known for certain. The theoretical inability to accurately quantify this opportunity has been referred to by Persi Diaconis mathematicians as "one of the embarrassing things in applied probability".
Scoring
The standard score in the Windows Solitaire game is determined as follows:
Moving cards straight from Waste pile to Foundation gives 10 points. However, if the card is first moved to Tableau, and then to the Foundation, then an additional 5 points are accepted for a total of 15. So in order to receive maximum score, there is no card to be moved directly from Trash to Basics.
Time can also play a factor in Windows Solitaire, if the Game Time option is selected. For every 10 seconds of the game, 2 points are taken. Bonus points are calculated with the 700,000/second formula to complete if the game takes more than 30 seconds. If the match takes less than 30 seconds, no bonus points are awarded.
Variations
Single 52-card deck
Here are some variations of the Klondike game:
- In Agnes , the stock is shared in batches of seven in the backup stack and each is available. Furthermore, the foundations of the foundation depend on the twenty-ninth card, which is discussed on the foundation.
- In Easthaven (a.k.a. Aces Up ), twenty-one cards are distributed to seven stacks of three, two face-to-face and another face up. The space in this game can only be filled by a king or any order that begins with the king (although they can simplify the rules and insert cards or sequences in blank spaces, as in some rules), and when playing jams, seven new cards are shared to the tableau , one on top of each pile. Easthaven can include 2 or 3 sets of cards.
- In Nine Over nine columns of cards are shared, compared to seven conventional Klondike. Players can choose which card to form the foundation; if one or more eight are exposed, for example, the player may decide to build on top of eight, and the pile is built 8-9-10-J-Q-K-Ace-2-3-4-5-6-7. If eight are built on top, seven fill the space and so on. Stocks are distributed one by one as needed.
- In Thumb and Pouch , the card in the table can be built on another that is any other than his own (for example, a spade can not be placed in a spade) and spaces can be filled by any card or order.
- In Whitehead , all cards are dealt face up, the building is based on the color (red glows red, black on black), a sequence consisting of a card of a suit the same can be moved as a unit, and space can be filled by card or any order.
- In Westcliff , thirty cards are distributed to ten stacks of three cards, two cards face down and another face up. The space in this game can be filled with cards or any order.
Tarot deck
The game can be played with a Tarot-style card 78 (like Tarot Nouveau). There are two ways to do this. Each has nine piles of increased tableau.
- Klondike Nouveau Run: use five foundations, and use Fool as the first card in the trump foundation, or delete it before playing. The Knight (Chevalier) appears between Jack and Queen.
- Klondike Tarot Evens: uses six foundations; four regular, and then use the red knights (cavaliers) as nobles to defeat 1-10, and the black knights as nobles to defeat 11-21.
