Posted: Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:30 am Post subject: Different Types of Card Games |
|
|
There are limitless types of card games to be played. People think because two games use the same deck of 52-cards that they are similar games, but nothing could be more different than Barbu and Speed, or Pai Gow and Pinochle.
Here's a list of twenty different kinds of card games, and some facts about them.
1.Bridge
Bridge is a popular contract bidding game. Bridge has a culture -- there are websites, newspaper columns, and even radio shows devoted to bridge strategy. There is a world-wide obsession with bridge, even though it has been called the hardest card game in the world. With a complicated strategy and steep learning curve, to many bridge is not just a game, it is a lifestyle. I wish I were exaggerating.

Although I agree with much of that article, there clearly is such as thing as "epic fail". Ans that's a scientific fact established daily all over the world.
A random example. This is an epic fail on many fronts:

Well, no. I just think she should be subjected to slow torture leading to an inevitable and painful death and then dumped in a nameless grave for fucking with one of the most beautiful ballads in the history of pop music. _________________ The Justified Ancient of Mu Mu |

Actually after thinking about it, it seems more sensible for me to be the fat attorney and you to be Doped Depp. _________________
