Course Description

Card gamesIn this easy-to-follow course discover the fun and easy way to play and win popular card games! You will understand how to play top trick-taking games, point-based and banking card games,  some card games for children, classic stand-bys such as BlackJack,  Rummy, Stud Poker, , and much more.

Card games are excellent diversions that build numerical, analytical, and strategic skills.  Since around the Tenth Century A.D., when the earliest-known cards were created in China, card games have become more and more popular.  Since around 1800, the United States has been one of the world's leaders in playing card games and the popularity of games like Blackjack and Poker continue to increase to this day, even to the extent of having online equivalents with no real "cards" whatsoever!

Get the inside deal on many card games, learn the etiquette and terminology, and teach and entertain children, family and friends. Each of these games is explained with an eye on enlightening, instructing, and entertaining both veteran and potential players.
