Elevens


Elevens is a solitaire card game using a standard 52-card deck. Cards are placed in a 3x3 grid, and pairs of cards which add up to eleven are covered up;
face cards may be eliminated in a set of three cards consisting of one Jack, one Queen and one King regardless of suit.
If all cards are covered up the game is won; if there are no more pairs of cards that add up to eleven, and there do not exist a Jack, a Queen, and a King, the game is lost.
An individual game of elevens is a game of pure chance, except for the small element of skill involved in spotting the pairs; the skill and strategic interest comes in not shuffling the cards at the end of each game, but instead collecting them up in order.
