I am trying to calculate the number of winning Solitaire games based on a paper by Rob Reijtenbach, linked here for your reference: https://theses.liacs.nl/2169. I made a chart, linked in the above URL, which depicts his calculations. I am trying to find the winning percentage based on seven tableau columns, not just three, and out of 52 cards, not just 12. I don’t know if this is possible since he used optimizations to not blow up his supercomputer, but I figured that I can ask. Thank you.

    Accirding to the link to the thesis, “optimization” simply means counting games trivially related by permutation as the same game
