<h1>Royal Marriage</h1>
|

<h3>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Royal Marriage is a solitaire card game using a deck of 52 playing cards.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The game is so called because the player seems to remove anything that comes
|
|
between the Queen and the King of the same suit for them to "marry." Although
|
|
the King and the Queen may be of any suit, commonly it is the King and Queen
|
|
of Hearts that are being "wed." For this same object, this game is also called
|
|
Betrothal.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Queen of the suit chosen (most commonly the Queen of Hearts) is placed
|
|
immediately on the table while her corresponding King (in this case, the King
|
|
of Hearts) will always be dealt last. The remaining fifty cards are shuffled
|
|
and placed on the top of the King.
|
|
<p>
|
|
Cards are dealt one at a time to the right of the Queen. When a pair of cards
|
|
with the same rank or suit are found to be separated by one or two cards,
|
|
those in-between cards are discarded. Afterwards, the player can look for any
|
|
resulting pairs with in-between cards to be discarded.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The game is won when Queen and the King are brought together with all other
|
|
cards discarded.
