Intelligence Solitaire is played with two decks of cards, and at the beginning of the game the player is dealt 19 piles of 3 cards each. The player can build down these piles by suit, or he can build up the foundations by suit. When the player has removed all the cards in a pile, three more cards are dealt into the pile from the stock cards that have not yet been dealt. If the player get stuck, he can reshuffle the cards that have not been placed into the foundation, and once again deal out 19 piles of three cards each. In this version of Intelligence Solitaire, the player can do this up to three times.
