to the right, but could not move one space to the left.  <br>
The last player to move wins. If both have a position where  <br>
they can continually jump their own cards without being able  <br>
to stop each other, it is a draw. (At first they said that in this  <br>
situation it is the player who has more cards in his piles is the winner.  <br>
We decided to eliminate this as detracting from the true  <br>
aim of the game.)  <br>
(Large version) This is the same game as 7/10/69 with the following  <br>
changes and clarifications.
The unused half of deck is shuffled and two cards are  <br>
dealt face down to each, after which, the 4 face down  <br>
cards in the field are dealt. For his first two moves each  <br>
player turns up one of his face down cards and must  <br>
move that card, even if the same card must be moved twice.  <br>
For the first two moves a card can be moved one space  <br>
in any orthogonal direction into an empty space. Majors, if  <br>
next to an empty space, can be so moved as well as minors.  <br>
In forced combinations the player must combine with the  <br>
lowest card he can use and with a choice of cards to  <br>
cover must cover the lowest (as previously stated by Wald).  <br>
The lowest minor a player has on the board (M, C, S, V)  <br>
has the same power of multiple combination that the highest  <br>
major has.
