It is very difficult to find that person who would never play cards in his life. The ancient gambling game is perceived by many simply as a way to kill time on a long journey or in a boring environment with nothing else to do. But there are a huge number of different card games, and each game has its own rules. In addition to the usual "fool", the game in which everyone has been taught from childhood, there are more serious games. If you want to learn more about playing cards and learn a few basic general rules of a professional game, then this article is for you.
Instructions
Step 1
Get a deck of cards for the game. Usually a deck consists of 52 cards. Cards are of four suits, which are determined by the icon: black cross - crosses, black inverted heart on a leg - spades, red rhombus - tambourines, red heart - hearts. Each deck has thirteen cards of different denominations (named in descending order): ace, king, queen, jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and there can also be two jokers in the deck … There are also decks with only 36 cards (they do not have 2, 3, 4 and 5 cards). For some games, you may need decks with a different number of cards.
Step 2
Arrange seats at the table. This is done by lot. Agree in advance who will take which place in which case, and draw cards from the deck. The winner is the one who draws the highest card. If two people drew the same value of the card, then either drag the cards, or count the victory to the one whose suit is higher.
Step 3
In the game, perform all actions clockwise - this is usually the case in the game. This includes shuffling, dealing cards, in-game announcements, and so on.
Step 4
If anyone at the game table expresses a desire to shuffle the deck before the next hand, then let him do it. According to the rules, any player can take on this function if he wants.
Step 5
If you remove a deck (that is, remove a part of the cards from the top of the deck), then remember that there must be at least five cards in the removed part. Grant the right to remove the deck to the player who sits to the right of the player who deals the cards.
Step 6
The first player to start is the player who sits to the right of the player who deals the cards. He is also called the senior player, and it is he who must make the first move.
Step 7
In the event that the dealer dealt the cards incorrectly, any player at the table can demand to shuffle and deal the cards again. Leave this feature to the same person who originally dealt the cards.
Step 8
Some games have a system of penalties and penalties for mistakes and incorrect play. Please be aware that there is a statute of limitations for the games. That is, if after a certain number of minutes or moves no one announced an error, later he will no longer be able to do this.
