Variant strategy

Whitehead is open-information but highly constrained.

Learn Whitehead strategy: same-colour building and same-suit movable sequences.

Core whitehead tips

  • Use full-visibility information to plan several turns ahead.
  • Preserve same-suit chains because only those can move as groups.
  • Avoid splitting a strong same-suit run unless it reveals key cards.
  • Use empty columns to reorganize colour-compatible stacks.
  • Do not overfeed foundations if a card is still needed in tableau.

Planning priority

Treat each move as a resource decision: protect mobility first, then push foundations when they do not close future options.

Common mistake

The most common mistake is forcing early foundation progress while tableau flexibility is still fragile.
