I’m sure I can’t remember them all.

Go Fish
War
Solitaire
Poker
Blackjack
Slap Jack
Cribbage
Uno
Mille Borne
Hearts

Various other games with unique cards and rules (Love Letter, some Collectible Card Games, other imaginative card games)

Various computer game versions of card games, including more developed and imaginative games and collectible card games.

Various board games that also have a card game component)

I play for fun.

I don’t know what my poker face looks like.

I am relatively competent but I can’t muster enough interest in card games to put much effort into playing them competitively. I prefer representational / simulationist board games and computer games and role-playing games.

I’m not really good at cards but one game that is pretty easy is Spades. You play with four people (total), two sets of partners.

@lucillelucillelucille That guy is bothering me because I know he’s a stand up but can’t recall his name.
Tell me you know :-)

In college, I was GREAT at Hearts. Never picked up Bridge, however.

Terrible at poker.

I remember he had a very laid back style, as if he told jokes on his deathbed :D

@ucme -Well then,here’s a quote:
“My dental hygienist is cute. Every time I visit, I eat a whole package of Oreo cookies while waiting in the lobby. Sometimes she has to cancel the rest of the afternoon’s appointments.”

@lucillelucillelucille Haha funny guy. I first saw him on Saturday Night Live over here back in the mid 80’s.

@ucme -He does make me laugh. I watched a movie that he did one time & it was not good. :(

Lots of poker. Both for money and for pinto beans. I taught my children how to play at an early age. It was interesting how my son preferred straights and my daughter preferred flushes. Either way, as soon as they got the hang of it they both started beating my butt!
So then I quit and played solitaire. My son set a broom on the other side of the table, telling me it was an angel playing against me. So then a freaking BROOM kicked my butt!

In college we played a ton of Spades.

@ucme Mille Bornes is a French card game about driving. The name (which I misspelled by accident – i learned about it in lower school French class, where I learned almost no French) means milestones, I think.

Dutchess_III's avatar

We played spades in college. After we got high we got all clairvoyant and shit! It sure seemed that way, anyway. Like, “Woooow maaaaan. How did I know what card you had, maaaan. Please pass the tacos.”
