What is LA BELLE LUCIE SOLITAIRE?

La Belle Lucie Solitaire is a classic patience game where the objective is to build all cards into the foundations by suit from Ace to King. The game starts with the entire deck dealt into 17 fans of three cards and one fan with a single card, all face-up. Only the top card of each fan is playable, and cards can be moved to the foundations or onto other fans in descending order by suit. Empty fans cannot be filled. Two redeals are allowed, where the tableau is reshuffled and redealt into fans. After the second redeal, a merci move is permitted, allowing the player to move any single buried card to the top of its fan to continue play. The game is won when all cards are moved to the foundations.
