Pyramid Solitaire
Clear the pyramid by removing pairs of cards that total 13 (K alone, Q+A, J+2, …).
Pyramid Solitaire — questions & answers
Which cards add up to 13 in Pyramid solitaire?
Q+A, J+2, 10+3, 9+4, 8+5 and 7+6 each total 13 and are removed as a pair. A King already equals 13 (A=1, J=11, Q=12, K=13), so a King is removed on its own.
Is Pyramid solitaire winnable every time?
No — many deals block themselves as cards stay covered by the pair below them. Working the Stock and Waste patiently gives you the best chance, but some pyramids simply can’t be fully cleared.
How does the stock work in Pyramid?
Flip cards from the Stock to the Waste; the top Waste card can pair with any uncovered pyramid card whose rank brings the total to 13. Use it to break open the pyramid when no two exposed cards match.
