7: Figure out what card is holding you back.
Sometimes, you may get to the end of the game, but not be able to move readily because you are missing one type of card. You may have all 9's at the bottom of your rows, but no 10 in sight. What you need to do is go back into the game (undo everything) and purposefully seek out those 10's (or whatever number it is you need) so that they will be in a good spot for you to use when you do get hit with all those 9's. You may have to do some searching and some more card turning to find the specific one you need, but it may be necessary to win the game.
Here's an example where I had this problem. You can see that I had a 5 of hearts, a 5 of clovers, and a 5 of spades with no 6's floating around.

By looking at my screen and at the cards that had been played, I could see all the spots where a 6 definitely wasn't. i.e. not in column 7 or 8, probably not in column 9 or 10 (though not impossible), etc. So I undid, looking at the other columns, to try and find the 6's.
I found that there was an additional 6 hiding behind the A of clovers.

When I replayed the game, I kept those spots of the sixes in mind, so that I would have those 6's available for future use. Below is a picture of the 2nd to last deal. You can see that I used the 6's I found, as well as cleared two columns.
I won that game. So, moral: seek out a specific card if you have to.
