Winning Strategy Tips For FreeCell Solitaire Card Game

FreeCell Solitaire is an extremely addictive card game invented by Paul Alfille. It is fun and very skill-dependent. Nearly every game of FreeCell can be won with perfect play. Only several FreeCell deals are known to be unsolvable. This makes FreeCell Solitaire card game much more interesting and popular than solitaire variations like Klondike, where luck is a large factor in the game. With FreeCell, winning depends mostly on skill.
You have a better chance of winning if you plan your strategy cautiously. Below you will find some simple rules that will help you to win FreeCell Solitaire on more regular basis.
1. The obvious moves are not always the best. Examine the tableau carefully before making any moves. It is very important to plan several moves ahead. 2. Make it a top priority to free up all the Aces and Deuces, especially if they are deeply buried behind the higher cards. Move them to the home cells as early as possible.
3. Try to keep as many freecells empty as possible. Be cautious! Once all freecells are filled with cards, you have almost no space to maneuver. Remember that your ability to maneuver is the key to this game. Make sure you have no alternative before placing any cards in the free cells.
4. Try to create an empty column as soon as possible. Empty columns are more important than freecells. Each empty column can be used to store an entire sequence instead of a single card. And it doubles the length of an ordered sequence of cards that can be moved from one tableau to another. (If the long sequence move involves both empty columns and freecells, it is often called supermove.)
5. If it is possible, fill an empty column space with a long descending sequence that begins with a King.
6. Do not to move cards to the homecells too quickly. You may need these cards later to maneuver lower cards of other suits.
Some FreeCell Solitaire deals are solvable very quickly, while others take more time to solve. Replaying the same shuffles in a number of different ways will allow solving the most difficult ones. The more you play the more games you are able to win. Continue to practice using the strategy above and soon you will find yourself achieving better results and enhancing your enjoyment of playing FreeCell.
