 You can also multiply the piles of cards of 7 up to as many as possible(which is seven,by the way)and it still works. You may have to experement at first to find how many times you need to do steps 2 and3. Good trick too.

It never is in the middle column for me, but it's always the last card in the column it's in, am I doing something wrong?
