Spooneye.Pdf • • SPOONEYE! First dpcumented as "Thirt y-Fours" in a 1571 British list of injunctions, the modern form of the game developed aboard pirate ships sailing in rhe Caribbean in the late 17th centuty. The game's most nOlOrious enthusiast was none other than the rllthless pirate Spooneye, who had a spoon in the place of a lost hand due to a fo ndness for soups, :iIld who, owing to ext reme myopia in one eye (the right, it is believed), would often cover the bad eye with his spoon-hand in order to focus. During the infamous double mutiny fad of the 1690s, (itself immortalized in the gaIlle, as weI! as numernus ballads,) Spooneye learned of Thirty­ Fours from the crew fo rmerly belonging to his mortal enemy, the nefarious Danish privateer Weirdbeard. Legend has it that the most powerful card in the game, the Nine, or 'Spooneye', originated when Spooneye was engaged in a �ame with his ship's new cook (name unknown). Fnlstrated at his own poor performance, Spoon eye played a Nine-his favorite card, due to the rcsemulance-and then grabbed one of the cook's cards and placed it on his side of the table. Justifiably angty, the cook argued that rhis was not part of the rules: in rhe origi nal Thirty-fours, Nines grant no special privilege. Spooneye, in response, leaped out of his chair and gouged out the unfortunate cook's left eye with his mighty spoon-hand. Most accounts suggesr thar the cook was keelhauled after the game; some (possibly apoctyphal) accounts suggest that it was this cook who later became the despised buccaneer Disheye. I n either event, we can assume that Spooneye won the game, which has beared his name, and his new rule, ever since. The game suuse'luently spread to the mainland, and maintained a modest following until the middle of the 18th century, when Whist's sudden rise in popularity and social cache caused the game ;') fa ll out of favor with all but the most provincial stratas of society. A brief revival of interest, mainly among women of ill repute, is documented as occurring in the 1840S, when the game was imported to America via profiteers import ing illegal merchandise into New Orleans. The revival had completely waned by the 1860s, however, and in this day and age, with such technological marvels as the moving picture show, the broadcast television variety program, O1n(L .-he long-playing p�pnograph record capturing rhe public's fanc)" inrerest is almost entirely confined to inmates, in"alids, and thc ot herwise socially incapablc.

  • These Savvy Subitizing Cards Were Designed to Play a Card Game I Call Savvy Subitizing (Modeled After the Game Ratuki®)
    ********Advice for Printing******** You can print these on cardstock and then cut the cards out. However, the format was designed to fit on the Blank Playing Cards with Pattern Backs from http://plaincards.com. The pages come perforated so that once you print, all you have to do is tear them out. Plus, they are playing card size, which makes them easy to shufe and play with.! The educators at Mathematically Minded, LLC, believe that in order to build a child’s mathematical mind, connections must be built that help show children that mathematics is logical and not magical. Building a child’s number sense helps them see the logic in numbers. We encourage you to use !these cards in ways that build children’s sense of numbers in four areas (Van de Walle, 2013):! 1) Spatial relationships: recognizing how many without counting by seeing a visual pattern.! 2) One and two more, one and two less: this is not the ability to count on two or count back two, but instead knowing which numbers are one and two less or more than any given number.! 3) Benchmarks of 5 and 10: ten plays such an important role in our number system (and two fives make a 10), students must know how numbers relate to 5 and 10.! 4) Part-Part-Whole: seeing a number as being made up of two or more parts.! These Savvy Subitizing cards were designed to play a card game I call Savvy Subitizing (modeled after the game Ratuki®). Printing this whole document actually gives you two decks of cards.

  • A Fast Mental Poker Protocol
    J. Math. Cryptol. 6 (2012), 39–68 DOI 10.1515/jmc-2012-0004 © de Gruyter 2012 A fast mental poker protocol Tzer-jen Wei and Lih-Chung Wang Communicated by Kwangjo Kim Abstract. In this paper, we present a fast and secure mental poker protocol. The basic structure is the same as Barnett & Smart’s and Castellà-Roca’s protocols but our encryp- tion scheme is different. With this alternative encryption scheme, our shuffle is not only twice as fast, but it also has different security properties. As such, Barnett & Smart’s and Castellà-Roca’s security proof cannot be applied to our protocol directly. Nevertheless, our protocol is still provably secure under the DDH assumption. The only weak point of our protocol is that reshuffling a small subset of cards might take longer than Barnett & Smart’s and Castellà-Roca’s protocols. Therefore, our protocol is more suitable for card games such as bridge, most poker games, mahjong, hearts, or black jack, which do not require much partial reshuffling. Keywords. Mental poker, DDH assumption. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification. 94A60, 68M12. 1 Introduction 1.1 Mental poker Mental poker is the study of protocols that allow players to play fair poker games over the net without a trusted third party. There are very few assumptions about the behavior of adversaries in mental poker. Adversaries are typically allowed to have a coalition of any size and can conduct active attacks. The main challenge is to design a secure mental poker protocol that is fast enough for practical needs. Numerous mental poker protocols have been proposed ([4,5,10–12,17,18,20,25,26,28,30,34–36]) and many of them are provably secure, but all commercial online poker rooms are still based on client-server architec- tures.

  • Dai Di Analysis
    3 << 2: Dai-di Analysis Teo Kai Meng, Roddy Kok Yik Siong, Jeremy Ang Kay Yong and Ivan Lim Wen Chiang Abstract Chor Dai Di is a popular local card game played usually with four players. Unlike other popular card games like Bridge or Poker, Big Two, as it is also known as, has little formal study made on it. An attempt is therefore made here to employ a systematic approach, not unlike that for the other card games, to formalise the workings of the game, as well as provide an insight to more advance play. With the compilation of a set of useful probabilistic data of the game, heuristics for playing can then be verified and new ones created. Introduction Amongst local card players, Chor Dai Di has to rank as one of the most popular, as the game is easy to get started on, though deceptively difficult to master. For some, the appeal of the game lies in its reliance on skill and judgment, though one can of course throw the decisions of game play to chance. As such, we believe that since it is possible to master the game, it must be possible to devise some guidelines for better play. To better appreciate the game, we had hoped to find out its origins. Unfortunately, the exact history of the game is unavailable, as we have yet to come across any book or documentation of the game. We did find a website on the game, but it had only an outline on the rules. Perhaps, it is then fair for us to make an inference on this apparent lack of information.

  • Kid Friendly Card Games Beyond Go Fish
    Kid Friendly Card Games Beyond Go Fish SPOONS: you need a standard deck of cards with no Jokers, spoons-one fewer than there are players, good for any number of players. Objective: The winner is the last player remaining. How to Play: Arrange the spoons in a small circle in the center of the table and deal four cards to each player. Each player tries to make four of a kind. The dealer takes a card off the top of the deck to have five cards in his hand, removes one and passes it facedown to the left. Each player discards to the person on his left. The last player places his discard into a trash pile. Cards are picked up and passed quickly around the table until someone gets four of a kind and takes a spoon from the center. Once the player with four of a kind takes a spoon, anyone can take a spoon. The player left without a spoon is out. If at any time the draw cards run out, pause to reshuffle the trash pile and keep going. Remove one spoon at the start of each hand so that there is always 1 fewer spoons than players. The fun part: The player who reaches four of a kind first has a variety of ways he can take the first spoon. A sneaky pull exposes those paying too close attention to their cards. A demonstrative grab leads to a wild free-for-all. Either way, it's hilarious. SNAP: use a standard deck of cards. Objective: Be the last player with cards to win.

Play continues until a player cannot place a card, at which point they have to pick up all the face-up cards and add them to their hand. They then start the next round with one of their cards of a different suit. The winner is the player who runs out of cards first. Pig card game What you need: Deck of cards Pens Cards for letters P,I,G Instructions: Sort the deck of cards out into piles of four of a kind. Set aside one pile for each player.
