PySol - Rules for Roaming Proils

# Roaming Proils

Fan game type. 1 deck. No redeal.

### Object

Move all cards to the foundations.

### Rules

Cards are dealt into 17 piles of three cards each, with only the top card of each pile face-up. The final card is dealt to a single reserve pile.

Tableau piles are built by same rank, but only three consecutive cards of the same rank are allowed in the same tableau pile. This is called a proil, and the fourth card of the same rank cannot be moved to a proil. Empty piles cannot be filled. The reserve card can be moved to an appropriate tableau pile at any time, but once the reserve is empty, only a king can be moved to it.

The foundations are built up by suit. The game is won if all cards are moved to the foundations.

### Notes

The name "Proil" is a distortion of "Pair Royal", which describes a three-of-a-kind in Cribbage.
