Volcano Eleven, deal #12
MediumChecked as winnableAbout this deal
This deal sits in the middle of the range for Volcano Eleven: 82% of the quick simulated games won it, so a sensible plan usually carries it through.
The bottom row starts with Fante of Cups, Re of Coins, Cavallo of Coins, Ace of Swords, Cavallo of Cups and 6 of Cups, and the Re of Swords sits at the very top.
One pair is ready straight away among the bottom cards.
9 times a card lies across one of its own partners, so those two cards can never leave together and need other partners.
The most crowded value is 4 with 3 cards in the layout, while only 1 of its partners (7) are in the layout too; the rest come from the stock.
The solver's winning line has 52 moves.
