Game to two or four people

Casino is played by two or four people with a package to 52 sheets of French playing cards.

• Aces count as either one or fourteen eyes ( pips )
• Two to ten according to their face value,
• Eleven boys,
• Ladies twelve,
• Kings thirteen,
• The ♠ 2 is called Little Casino and is one of two or fifteen eyes, and
• The ♦ 10, Big Casino called, ten or sixteen eyes.

In the two-player game, each player receives twelve cards. Take four people participate in the game, each player is dealt four cards face each other seated players form as at Whist, Bridge or Canasta a partnership.

Four cards are dealt face down on the table next to each other, the rest as Talon next to it.

The aim of the game is to collect as many points by conquering of place cards.

If a player 's turn, he must be either

• Store, ie a card lay on the table,
• Mate, that hz as a boy laying on a table lying on the boys, and put these two cards, to or together with his partner he conquered cards
• Combine, compose d hz as with a seven lying on the table cards, Ace, Two and Four to a combination of 7 = A 2 4 eyes and place these three cards together with the seven cards to the conquered, or
• Build, that is, a card from his hand with one or more cards from the table so to assemble at a total value that he can conquer these cards in the next train; the so- mated cards may no longer be separated.

Once, all place cards conquered ( cleared the table), then the next player has to - for lack of other options - place a card, this is called bring a card for the table.

Are all hand cards consumed, so is re- divided from the talon, while the table is no longer being considered. So the game continues until all cards in the deck are played out, after the last train of the last player that party or its fall to the possibly still lying on the table cards, but this is not considered a cleared table.

Once all cards have been played, the game will be billed as follows:

• The party with the majority of cards, that is, with at least 27 captured cards, receives three points.
• The party that could conquer the Big Casino ( ♦ 10) gets two points.

Furthermore, a party gets one point for

• The Little Casino ( 2 ♠ ),
• Any ace,
• The majority of Pique cards, that is, for at least seven conquered Pique cards, and
• Cleared every table.

The winner is the party with the most points.

Mostly, however, it does not just play a single game ( deal), but a game (game ), a game is won once a party has reached 21 points.

Player game

In the three-player game, each player is dealt seven cards, there are no partnerships formed, each player plays for himself

For accounting purposes with respect to the majority of the cards or the majority of Pique cards suffices in each case the relative majority.
