  • Can you play solitaire games with Italian cards? Absolutely! Stacking Solitaire, is one of the best Italian style Solitaire games out there. Can you beat the deck?
    There are two missed opportunities I made in this video. 18:19 I should have placed the 6 of Clubs on the 5 of Clubs & at 19:47 I could have placed the 5 of Swords on the 6 of Cups. That eventually happens, but I didn't need to go through so much drama to get there! Take a lesson from my mistake, think about all your possibilities before you act!

    I never pass up the satisfying feeling you get being "a completionist"!
    Nice to unexpectedly hear Clara's theme song.

    Thanks for the nostalgia! My grandmother played a little different. She’d draw 1 card at a time but could only go through the deck twice.

      Excellent variation: “Everyone deserves a second chance?”

    I’ve just discovered Italian card games and this channel makes them so much easier understand than just reading the rules in a book. I enjoy your presentation style, too.

    Thanks for the great video. I started to learn to play Scopa while living in Italy for the past 5 years. Now back in America and no one know how to play. So this version is great.

    Love this video 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ i know another 3 types of solitaire, which are called gap solitaire, kings in the corner solitaire and Napoleon's tomb. I notice that the Italian deck can be used to play these games too

    Thanks for another great video! I love different solitaire variations. I've yet to win a single game of Pyramide. Apparently it's something like a 5% win rate...brutal!
    Have you ever played Ti Vitti? My great aunt Caterina plays that with her friends.

      Thanks so much for watching and for the nice comment! Wow Ti Vitti, that’s something I haven’t heard in a long time. Yes I recall it, very Sicilian/southern Italian and a fun game even for kids. Perhaps I’ll give it a shot on here 🤔- thanks again!

    - I think you missed an opportunity to play a card at 18:19 mark, but this isn’t Ti Vitti (and even if it were, I’m sure there’s a statute of limitations). Thanks for making all of these videos

    Hi, your ytb channel is amazing. Understood the whole game appart from the fact you put the re at the back of the file 16:17.
    Can you please explane me how so that i can spare some time pls ?

    • @Play-In-Games
      @Play-In-Games  Před rokem +1

      Good question. I could have moved the whole left stack onto the Re/King starting with the Cavallo/Horse and down. Most players prefer to just move the smaller stack on top of the taller one, since it’s essentially the same move, just on a different space. You can do it either way, your choice. Thanks for watching!

    What happens when the draw pile is down to 3 cards or less?

    • @Play-In-Games
      @Play-In-Games  Před rokem +2

      Good question. You won’t be able to flip the deck over at that point. Rather you can only use the top most shown card.

    Hi I started recently with Italian cards, when I started solitaire my fourth card was an ace, do I stack up above immediately and take an extra card for the lower row, or draw 4 cards and ad the fourth card?

    • @Play-In-Games
      @Play-In-Games  Před rokem +2

      Great question. You would raise up the ace and then replace that empty spot with the forth card drawn from the deck. Welcome to the world of Italian cards!
