Occasionally super moves don't work even though there is "room" to accommodate them. Finally found an easily reproducible example. In https://greenfelt.net/freecell?game=400679139 click or tap on the topmost ace. Nothing happens, though four non-ace cards will fit in the expansion spaces. Clicking on the 9 does work.

    You’re right! We’ll have to look into that. Thanks for the nice reproducer!

    Hi @zudensternen, I finally took the time to look into this. The issue is that we prefer dragging the stack 2H AC as a pair, that can be dropped onto the free cells, to moving the AC to the foundation and then the 2C to the free cells which means we waste a spot in the free cells and can therefore never move the AH. Hmm.
