What's The Best Card Game?

[Bonzi]

What's the best (or your favorite) card game (using a standard deck of cards, of course)

Have you played it on line?


I have played mostly Spades, but, have dabbled in Bridge, which seems pretty interesting....

I love Texas Hold'em, but I think it's only "true" in person. Hard to read people on the internet.

cribbage

We were playing cribbage for a while, we need a better board.

Why did you leave out Poker?

Because it's obviously going to be the most popular. Maybe I should have made the survey, what's your SECOND favorite card game....

You've never heard of Poker huh Bonzi ?!

I guess you don't go to casinos.

Still it is a "card game".

Poker came from France where the name means "pocketbook".

Good for sharpening playing skills on line but nothing like reading others live which as you know is every bit as important as your skills.

P.S. I voted "other" because my favorite game is like War, but better. I don't know the actual name of the game, but I love the game like War where having the King, Queen, Jack, and Ace cards give you an advantage and if you and your competitor lay down the same number or letter card one right after another, the first person to slap the pile is who gets every card that is in it.

UNO!

Oh, sorry, forgot it was standard deck.

 

[JOSweetHeart]

^^^ Another great game!

God bless you always!!!

Though I voted for bridge because I play it more often, I'm equally given to bridge and pinochle.

OT:
I find it interesting to discover what games individuals most enjoy. I think one can learn something about a person by the games they like to play. In addition, to bridge and pinochle, I like Go, Diplomacy, backgammon, chess, "figure it out" games like Myst, and some RPGs.

FWIW and because folks have mentioned it, I can play poker -- I'm even somewhat decent at it -- but I don't particularly enjoy playing it. Ditto the other games that casinos offer and that I've played (roulette, Blackjack, and baccarat)
