Goal: Discard all cards in pairs that total 14.

The entire deck is dealt into 12 piles, with 5 cards in the first 4 piles, and 4 cards in the rest.

If 2 cards in the same pile total 14, it would be advised to move one out as soon as you can. If they get left as the last cards of those ranks, they will remain blocked.

Tarbart deals 4 cards to each pile and lets you choose where to deal the remaining 4 cards.
