Track Cards in Draw 3

Level: Advanced

Calculate the position of the card you want in the three-card cycle.

In Draw 3, three cards turn over each time and only the top one is immediately playable. To use a card you want, you have to calculate the cycle so that card ends up on top of a group of three.

Every time you use a card from the waste, the alignment of the following groups shifts by one. Use this property to make a previously unreachable card reachable.

Cycling the stock once and remembering which cards land in the "top spot" greatly improves your Draw 3 win rate.
