In this game, BlackJack Piles 21 Solitaire, you start with a 52-card deck and five empty tableau piles. Turn over the deck one card at a time, placing the card on any of the five piles. When a Blackjack hand is created, remove it to free up space in the tableau. If you manage to create more Blackjack hands than there are cards remaining on the table, you get to keep playing, thru seven ever-more difficult rounds.

Rounds

This game is arranged as seven rounds, each progressively more difficult than the last. In order to advance from one round to the next, you must cash in more Blackjack hands than cards left on the table.
