2.1 How do I play ?

There is a stack of 52 cards. You have to put these cards one by one into a 4x4 grid. All cards can be placed anywhere, except for the kings, the queens and the jacks, which have to be placed on the margin of the grid as shown in this table:

When you have filled the grid, you can discard pairs of cards with a sum of ten (or single ten cards), e.g. nine and ace or seven and three. After that you can start trying to place the rest of the pack into the grid.

If you finish the pack ( or build the picture frame), you have won the game.

For instance if you can't place the king, because the four special fields are not free you have lost.

Sounds easy, isn't it?
So come on and try to win at least one game!
