They do not play with a standard deck of 36 cards, as usual, but with a deck of 52 cards. The main task of a pair of players is to score the maximum number of points.

Many people like to play cards. This not only allows you to have fun, but also develops logical thinking skills, the ability to analyze the situation, count points, as well as attention, perseverance, memory, because you need not only to be able to add points correctly for each player, but also to learn the rules of the game.

It is also convenient to take with you on vacation: to nature, to the sea, to the train. They occupy a minimum of places, and give maximum pleasure from the game. In the article, we will consider several interesting card games for two. Some of you may already be familiar, and some will meet for the first time. Try to learn new game options, remember the long-forgotten games of your childhood.

"Witch"

Before the start of the game, one of the queens must be taken from the deck. After shuffling, the cards are distributed equally among the players. The last unpaired goes to the one who distributed. "Witch" is the scariest card, of course, it's the Queen of Spades. When playing a card game for two, players immediately understand who got it, but this does not matter, the situation can change dramatically after the first move.

To begin, each player looks for paired cards and sets the pairs aside. For example, two tens, two aces, two jacks. Only single pictures remain in the hand. In such a card game for two, the rules are as follows.

The first player holds his cards in his outstretched hand with "shirts" to the second player. He draws one of the cards from the fan, any, at will. If he has a pair, he immediately puts it aside.

Then it's the other player's turn to draw a card. The witch may also be caught. The player who has the Queen of Spades in his hands loses.

"I believe - I do not believe"

This is one of the most fun card games You can play in a big company. All cards are dealt into the hands of the players. The goal of the game is to collect all the available fours of cards, for example, if a player has 4 sixes in his hands, he gets rid of them by putting them aside. The winner is the one who will be left empty-handed the fastest.

How to play?

The first move is made by the player who was the dealer. He puts 1, 2, 3 or 4 cards face down in the middle of the table and announces what kind of cards they are, for example 2 queens. The other player looks at his cards and realizes that he cannot have two queens, since he has three in his hand. Then he replies: "I don't believe it!" The first player takes the cards back. The move is passed. The main intrigue is that you can deceive your opponent in every possible way by throwing completely different cards.

For example, a six and an eight are laid out on the table, and the player says that he laid out two aces. You can believe him, even if you know that he is deceiving. In this case, the second player puts his one or two cards, then announces that he also put two aces. Now it's the turn to doubt the veracity of the first player. The opponent can say: "I don't believe it!"

If, turning over the cards, everyone sees that there really are two aces, then the player takes the entire buyback for himself. At the same time, he can really get aces, having collected all four cards, he puts them aside. The first person to get rid of all the cards wins.

"Drunkard"

This is a favorite card game for two for children. All cards are dealt in half. They take turns, putting one card in the middle of the table. The opponent must lay out his own, while not looking at its face value, but holding all the cards in the pile face down. The one with the highest card wins. The highest card is the ace, then the king, queen, jack and ten. The rest correspond to a numerical value.

If two identical cards fall out, then a "dispute" begins. First, on each of his cards, the player puts another "shirt" up, then the second, but with the side on which the cost of the card is visible. The one with the highest top card takes all 6 cards. An ace can also lie inside. Here, someone will be lucky.

The one with the most cards wins. You can play such a card game for two with 36 cards for a long time, since the situation is constantly changing, then one player has an advantage, then another. All cards that are won as a result of moves are placed in a pack from below.

"Klabor"

This card game for two is considered analytical, as you need to think through the moves in advance, take risks or pass, depending on the face value of the cards that the player got after the distribution. Play it up to 501 points. Before starting the game, you need to prepare a pencil and a sheet of paper, draw a table and write down all the points won in the game. After each move, they are summed up and the total number of points is displayed. The winner is the one who scores 501 points first.

Six cards are dealt to each player, three more are on the table in front of the players. The rest are put into the deck and a trump card is exposed, as in the game of "Fool". The cost of the pictures is as follows: ace - 11, ten - 10, king - 4, queen - 3, jack - 2, trump jack "boy" - 20, trump nine "manela" - 14. If the trump king and queen ("bella" come across ), then the cost of this pair is 20, the last, that is, the last trick, is 10, if the player has got any three cards in a row, for example, 9, 10, jack or queen, king, ace, then the cost of such a set ("terts") is 20 , but there is also fifty dollars - these are 5 cards in a row, as in the photo above - 50 points. But if you are lucky and get 7 cards in a row - this is a "clabor", that is, you automatically won the game.

Rules of the game

You also need to know that before the start of the game, all small cards up to nines are laid aside. After the first 6 cards have been dealt, the player evaluates his chances of success and sees how many extra points he is able to score, and announces that he plays or folds. If the second player also refuses to play and says: "Pass!", Then the first one has a chance to win. He can announce his trump card and play on. After that, they take the remaining three cards into their pack. The game starts.

They walk on one card. The opponent must respond with a large card of the same suit. If not, then they go with a trump card, if there is none, then you can discard any unnecessary card, for example, a nine. She's worth nothing.

In order for the player to receive bonus points for cards, it is necessary to take at least one trick. If you fail to do so, the points will be forfeited. If the game is won not by the player who played, but by the one who said: "Pass!", Then all the points go to the opponent.

If a player has a “Bella” or “Terz” in his hand, but sees in advance that he will not take a single trick, he does not announce them, that is, the prize points are not considered for the winning opponent, they have the usual value, like simple cards.

But if you want to be credited with bonus points, you must declare during your turn that you have these sets of cards and show them to your opponent at the beginning of the game.

"Point" (or "21")

One of the most popular card games for two adults is "Point", otherwise called "Twenty-one". This is a simple game, the rules are simple, a lot depends on luck. One player holds a deck of cards and gives out one to the opponent. He counts the points. He needs to score a number of points close to the number 21. It is better to score less than to bust. If, as a result of counting, the player understands that he has touched the cards, then he must definitely say this. Then the opponent automatically wins.

If you are lucky, and the calculation turned out to be exactly 21 points, then you also become the winner. If you have, for example, 20 points, and your opponent has 18, then you have won. There is one more feature. If two aces fell out, then this is also a victory, although it is bust on points. It's called the banker's point.

In the article, we talked about the rules of card games for 36 cards for two. Play with pleasure!

Card games are loved all over the world. With them, as with ordinary ones, it's nice to pass the time in the company, card tournaments are held in many countries of the world. There are more than a thousand varieties of card games, and we have compiled the TOP 7 of the most popular of them.

♠ ♠ ♠

GIN RAMMI

Most popular in the US and Latin America. Gin rummy originated from the popular Mexican game kunken in the middle of the last century. Now this variant of rummy is distributed mainly in Europe and the USA.

The game belongs to the logical-strategic, and it is rarely played for money. Gin-rummy is designed for 2-4 people. To play in pairs, 10 cards are dealt, a company of three or four people receives seven cards in their hands. The remaining deck after the distribution is placed in the middle of the table and the top card is removed - players will discard unnecessary cards onto it.

The main goal of the game is to collect a combination of three or more cards of the same suit or value. Players can draw cards from both resulting decks, but they cannot discard sheets just taken from the discard pile. The best position in the game is gin, when a person has no "extra" cards in his hand that are not used in a combination. The player who scores the most points loses and hands over the sheets (corresponds to the value of the card, the ace in rummy is considered one, the jack, queen and king are tens).

BRIDGE

One of the most beloved in America and Europe, but not very popular in the CIS countries. The forerunner of the bridge is considered to be whist, which has been popular in the Russian Empire since the 19th century, but practically disappeared in Soviet times.

The complexity of the bridge is comparable to chess and backgammon, the game is internationally recognized as a kind of intellectual sport. Bridge hosts major tournaments and mini-events designed for a company of eight people. A distinctive feature is that a person does not play for himself, but for his couple (East in a team with West, North with South). In bridge, it is not customary to prompt or help your friend, the game has a strict code of ethics that does not allow any violation of the rules and discipline.

Four people participate in a home rubber bridge. This variety is less popular due to the large influence of randomness on the results of the game. Bridge lovers prefer a sporty variation of the game, in which everything depends on memory and logical thinking.

♠ ♠ ♠

PREFERENCE

Like bridge, it is an "aristocratic" game with its own code of honor, which has its roots in the English "whist". It is most interesting to play preference in a company of three or four people - cards are dealt only to three players, and with a larger number of participants, entertainment loses pace and dynamism. Preference refers to commercial games, where, unlike gambling, the outcome of the game depends not on luck, but on the skills of the participants.

The preference does not use sevens, they play with a deck of 32 sheets. The main goal of the game is to score more points. The rules of preference are changed from time to time. The last revision took place in 1996, when the Russian Club of Preference Admirers issued its own set of recommendations and rules of the game.

♠ ♠ ♠

BLACK JACK

One of the most famous card games in the world, invented specifically for the casino. The forerunner of blackjack is the 21st game, popular in 19th-century France. Blackjack first appeared in gambling establishments in the United States. In order to interest a wide range of visitors, casino employees had to carry out various PR campaigns and even modify the rules of the classic “Twenty-one” to be more interesting for players.

In Russia, one of the variations of blackjack is popular - a point. The main difference between these varieties is in the deck: in the American version, 54 cards are used, in the Russian one - 36. A point is considered a home option, which is more suitable for playing outside the casino.

♠ ♠ ♠

POKER

The most famous and popular gambling card game in the world. Poker is internationally recognized as a sport that regularly hosts tournaments and championships. The game gained popularity over two hundred years ago, the first mention of a similar card entertainment dates back to the beginning of the 16th century.

Poker perfectly combines logical-strategic features with a high level of dependence on luck. As in gin rummy, the main goal of the participants is to score the most "weighty" combination. It is more interesting to play poker with bets (albeit with play money), when participants need to feel the atmosphere at the table to save their funds, understand when it is better to leave the game and save the remaining chips, and at what point to take a risk and raise the bet.

Bluffing is also important in poker. A player who does not own valuable cards can bluff opponents who are unsure of their abilities, forcing them to leave the game.

GOAT

The goat appeared in Germany at the end of the 19th century, becoming today one of the most popular card games in the CIS countries. Has many variations. Each region has its own version of the goat, which differs in the rules for assigning a trump, which often creates confusion for participants from different cities.

The goat is both bridge and fool at the same time. As in bridge, players are divided into teams sitting crosswise, three-player “one against two” is allowed. The resemblance to a fool is manifested in the presence of a trump card and the need to beat the cards of opponents.

♠ ♠ ♠

FOOL

A game that needs no special introduction, the rules of which are known even to first graders. The fool appeared in the Russian Empire in the 19th century and was distributed only among peasants - the nobility preferred "aristocratic" preference and bridge. The game gained popularity in the USSR, at the same time new varieties of the fool appeared: flip, transfer, with a deck of 52 cards.

The fool is distinguished by simple rules and the ability to play in a large company. Like most non-real money card games, a fool will help you forget about problems and get rid of.

Instruction

It is generally accepted that cards are gambling. Yes, you can get carried away with them and forget to do some things. But now there are more gambling and dangerous activities. Computer entertainment takes a lot of time from many, makes them nervous. If your child sits at a laptop for too long, then distract him with card games.

It will be interesting for very young people to play "The Drunkard". Yes, the name is not for children, so before you decide to entertain your grandson, son or daughter in this way, come up with your own name.

Take a deck of 36 cards and distribute them so that everyone has a stack of 18 cards. They should be face down. Considering your wealth is prohibited. Agree on whose first move, if yours, then put the top card from your pile on the table, and the small partner - his. This trick goes to the one whose card is higher. Whoever takes the whole deck first wins.

Almost everyone can play the Fool, but the French version is not so well known. Deal cards, starting with a partner. You should have 4, and he should have 5 pieces. Do not open the trump card, it is not here. Partner starts to move. You must play a card of the same suit or value.

For example, to his eight of spades, you can put 8 of any suit. If you have neither one nor the other, but there is a lady, then she is perfect and even gives the right to name any suit. A card of exactly that suit should be put by your opponent.

If there is no lady, then take a card from the general deck on top of the card until you see the one you are looking for. If you go from the seven, then the partner must take 2 cards from the common deck. A six dooms him to 1 extra, an ace makes him miss a move.

The first person to get rid of all the cards wins. The loser counts his points. The game consists of several rounds, the one who first scored 100 points loses in it.

If you do not want to bother with calculations, then spend time together playing the Sunshine card game. Arrange these attributes in a circle in the form of a large ring, face down. Take turns and put in the center. If there is already a card of the same suit, then you will have to take them all and play with this set already.

Play the card game Bura together. Deal 3 cards to yourself and your partner, starting with him. The next, seventh in a row, is a trump card. The task is to score 31 points first.

Walk with one, two or three cards of the same suit. In the last scenario, the chance to score a lot of points is the highest, since the second participant will be forced to discard all 3 of his cards. If he does not beat yours with them, then feel free to take the bribe and attribute the points to yourself.

note

When scoring in the game "Bura", remember what is given for: ace 11, ten 10, king 4, queen 3, jack 2 points. No points are awarded for other cards.

There are a lot of card games. Children are suitable for those that are simpler. Some adults play games where you need to build a strategy, select certain combinations. Others prefer lighter options just to have fun and have fun doing this activity.

Instruction

To the category of children can be attributed "Sun", "Drunkard", "Toilet". Some of the titles are quite extraordinary, but the games themselves do not become less interesting because of this. Card "Toilet" will teach skill. First, lay out all the cards in a circle so that a small empty space forms inside.

Let each player take cards in turn. The one whose hand destroys the toilet building has lost. For this entertainment, you don’t even need to learn the name of the card suits. For the next one, it is necessary.

To play Sunny, lay out the cards almost as in the previous case, face down, but the inner space should be larger. Now each participant takes one card and puts it in the center. If the same suit already lies there, then you will have to pick up all the cards from this inner circle and play with them. Whoever has cards left at the end of the round loses.
