moving cards to the left as if towards the upper left corner to fill any gaps left behind by the discarded pairs. Once some or all such pairs have been removed, the cards are consolidated, i.e. The rest of the pack is set aside as the stock.Ĭards that make up a pair (such as two Kings or two Sixes) are removed when they are immediately next to each other horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
The game is set up by laying out 25 cards so that they form a 5x5 grid. Alternative names for this game include Good Neighbours and Weddings. Despite its name, it has no relation to the city with the same name nor to any casino-related game. Monte Carlo is a pair-matching patience or card solitaire game using a pack of 52 playing cards where the object is to remove pairs from the tableau.
