Play one rank above or below
This embed deals 28 cards into three overlapping peaks, with a 23-card stock and one face-up waste card. Play an exposed peak card exactly one rank above or below the waste card; suits do not matter.
An exposed card has no remaining peak card covering it. Playing it can uncover cards beneath and reveal the next move.
Save the one-pass stock
If no exposed peak card is one rank away from the waste card, turn over the next stock card and check again. This version's 23-card stock cannot be recycled. You may still play from the waste top after the last draw, but no more cards can be drawn.
Before drawing, inspect every exposed card. An available match may reveal another card and extend the current sequence without using a stock card.
Use the King–Ace–2 wrap
This embed wraps ranks at both ends: King connects to Ace, and Ace connects to 2 in either direction. For example, with an Ace on the waste, an exposed 2 is playable; a King can also continue the run.
When several cards can be played, prefer the move that exposes more cards or keeps a useful sequence going. The stock cannot be recycled, so avoid spending a draw when a playable peak card remains.
Which card can I play in TriPeaks?
An exposed peak card exactly one rank above or below the waste card.
Do TriPeaks suits have to match?
No. Only rank matters for the one-step match.
Does Ace connect to King or 2?
Yes. This embed uses the King–Ace–2 wrap in either direction; its stock cannot be recycled.
