It took me several tries, 30-45 minutes (lost track of time), but I beat it. I have to wake up at 4am eastern time to drive to work in freezing rain, so I don't have time for a full play-by-play.

At the beginning/middle of the challenge, don't put the 6 of spades on the 7 of diamonds. Instead dig down to the 6 of clubs, fourth from bottom of 5th stack. This frees up the ace of hearts as the third ace for playing three fours.

After the 6 of clubs is down, play the 5 of diamonds to it to free up the 3 of spades.

I had skipped all the easy and medium challenges in this collection to concentrate on the hard and expert challenges to get stars as fast as possible. My favorites are Freecell and Pyramid, and I skip all but the easiest Tripeaks challenges, so I have a
lot fewer stars than you have. Thanks for posting about this, I like a challenge.

Although not impossible, this was harder than some of the expert boards. They may have inadvertently marked it as "Easy" as it's draw-one, where most of the hard and all of the expert challenges in this collection are draw-three.

I'll be in heaven if Microsoft/Arkadium follow this up with all-Freecell and all-Pyramid Star Club collections. Hint hint

EDIT: You beat it while I was typing all of that

On boards 1 and 3 you have to clear all the cards, including the draw pile.

Board 2 is unbeatable, and I'm not sure if I got max points on it or not.

Board 4 was tough, but the solution involved clearing all the cards, including the draw pile, which hit the target for points.

I think there was an Expert Star Club challenge like this (I don't remember which collection), but with only one deal, the second board was unbeatable, and it took a long time for me to figure out how to clear the draw pile for the first board, which was
the only way to get enough points.

you're a real genius, many many thanks. now i have now all crowns, but, no more challenges

only the daily tasks. if you ever need help again, i like to help again.

thanks again to you,
