Finally, lay ten cards face up in a row across the bottom, each card overlapping the previous face-down card. Next, deal three cards on top of the two cards, offset by the same degree. Next, deal two cards face-down onto each card, offset, so they form a pyramid. To create the pyramids, deal three cards face down. Each pyramid has six cards each with a row of ten cards beneath connecting the three pyramids at the base. Eighteen cards are dealt face-down to form three “pyramids”.
