What are Card Games?
Card games are games that are played using a deck of cards. A standard deck of cards usually consists of 52 cards divided into four suits: spades, hearts, diamonds, and clubs. Each suit contains 13 cards, from ace (which is often considered the highest card) to king, queen, jack, and the numbers 10 through 2.
Card games can be played with two or more players and can be based on strategy, luck, or a combination of both. Some popular card games include Poker, Blackjack, Bridge, Rummy, Solitaire, and Go Fish. There are also many variations and regional versions of these games.
Card games have been played for centuries and continue to be a popular pastime today. They can be played in person or online, and can be a fun way to socialize and compete with friends and family. Additionally, many card games have tournaments and competitions where players can compete for prizes and recognition.
