Do you know any card games.?

Question

Me and my Grandma play cards all the time in the summer when I go over her house and we get stuck playing the same old games-Solitaire, King in the Corner, Trash, and Go Fish.

Answer 1

Card games lets see, there's speed. Here's how you play.

1. okay, first arrange cards so that it goes 5 cards[in a deck], then 1 card, then another 1 card, then 5[in a deck] cards along the table.

2. Then you and your grandma would, divide the rest of the cards between you guys.

3..Once you have the rest of the cards split up, take the first five cards from your deck.

4.Once you have the cards in your hand, both you and your grandma, would each flip one of the 1 one card spread along the table.

5.Once the cards are flip the game begins.

6.The goal in speed is to get rid of your cards and yell "speed!" when your out of cards. The first person to yell it wins. But obviously you have to be out of cards to yell it.

7.So, here's how to get rid of your cards. Say for example, you both pull a 3 and a jack. If you have a  4 or 2 lay it over the 3. And if you have a queen or a 10 put it over the jack.

8.You must always have 5 cards in your hand, so if you put one card down, you take one from your deck.

9. You play until someone runs out of cards. That person is the winner.

Hope it doesn't sound to hard to understand. Just want to help  =]

Answer 2

My grandma and I used to play Pounce; it's like Solitaire, only for two (or more) people and with two (or more) decks. Let's see if I remember...

Okay, to start out, each person gets their own deck (standard 52 cards, no jokers). Make sure they have different backs so you can tell them apart.

Each person counts out a pile of ten cards (or 15 or 20 for a longer hand) for himself and puts them face down on the table in front of himself, and then turns the top card face up. Next to that stock pile, place four cards in a row face up.

When both players are ready, you say "Go" and play begins. The four cards face up are your "building" piles; you play on them just like in regular sinlge-draw Solitaire (red on black and vice versa, smaller cards on larger ones in numerical order, with Aces beginning their own piles up above). The pile of 10 is your stockpile, and you can play the cards from there on the building piles or the ace piles. The object is to get rid of this pile.

The fun part here is that you can play on your opponent's ace piles (but not their regular building piles). So, e.g., if your opponent puts up an ace of hearts and then you turn up the two of hearts, you can put your two on his ace, regardless of whether your own is up or not.

The object is to play out your stock pile before your opponent, so always be aware of what's on top and remember to turn up the next card when you play the top card. When a player plays the last card from his stock pile, he says "Pounce," and the hand is over; play stops immediately and players must sort the cards in the ace piles and figure up the scores for the hand.

Cards in your four building piles are neither for nor against you; just set them out of the way for a moment.

For each of *your* cards played in the ace piles (yours or your opponent's piles, it makes no difference), you get one point. Each card left in your stock pile after your opponent says "pounce" counts as two points against you. Your score is the net total of these two amounts (it can be negative), and the first person to reach 50 points (or 100, or whatever score you choose) is the winner!

~~EDIT~~

I just remembered another one; it's called Golf.

Only one deck this time, again, standard 52 cards, no jokers.

Each player is dealt six cards—DON'T LOOK AT THEM! Place them face down in front of you, in two rows of three. Turn up one card (it doesn't matter which).

Place the deck face down in the middle of the table for a draw pile, and turn up the top card next to it for a discard pile.

Begin play! Each turn consists of the player either turning up one of his remaining facedown cards, OR trading one in for a card from the draw pile or the top of the discard pile. (You may draw from the draw pile and discard the one you drew instead of replacing one of your cards, if you decide you don't want it).

Play continues until a player turns up his last remaining facedown card; that is his last turn, and the remaining players each get one more turn, and then the game is over.

Scoring: Aces are worth -1, Kings are worth 0. The number cards 2-10 are worth their face value, and Jacks and Queens are worth 10 each. The object is to have the LOWEST score (hence the name of the game).

Also, placement is important, because if two of the same card (e.g. two fives) are above and below each other, they cancel each other out and count as zero.

Here's an example spread; it's easier to explain with a visual.

|K| |4| |7|

|8| |A| |7|

Okay, the King in the top left is 0; the Ace in the bottom middle is -1; the sevens on the right are above/below each other (as mentioned above) and so they cancel out and count as 0. The 8 and 4 count face value. Therefore, the score is 8+4-1=11.

Note: If you have an Ace above another Ace (like the sevens above), they cancel out too, so instead of totaling -2, they would just be 0.

Hope this all isn't too confusing; have fun!

Answer 3

try the most puzzling card game. PHASE 10 the instrustions are in the box.

Answer 4

Hey, I know this one might sound a little boring or "for over 50ers'', but crib/cribbage, is kind of a big deal. You may find it to be a pretty fun way to pass the time with g'ma. Christmas tradition at me pops' hoose. You;ll be able to find rules and regs and junk if you just google "cribbage rules" or something like that. Crib used to intimidate me a bit, just cuz.....actually, I don't know why it used to intimidate me. Possibly cuz my pops knows ALL the little hints and tricks to making a "looks like nothing" hand into something incredible. You catch on after a few go's. Your Grams, prob. knows a few tricks to it, too. If you can count to 15, this game may very well be for you. (And Grams, too).,

The only other games I play consistently have swear words in the title.

Whoa whoa whoa....no offense Cara....but war isn't so great. The way you play sounds like a game could go on for days, as well. (No offense)

Answer 5

War!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_(card_g...

It says you can only play it with two people but you can play it with as many people as you want! Also, when I get a war, I only put one card down in the middle. Enjoy!
