  • 150 Korttipeliä.Indd
    Salasuhteita Avioliittopeleistä kehiteltiin edelleen uusia pelejä, joissa varsinaisten avioliittojen lisäksi kohdataan so- pimattomia suhteita kuningatarten ja sotilaiden välillä – vieläpä maiden rajat ylittäen! Tällaista suhdetta ni- mitettiin beziqueksi. Nimelle on monta muutakin se- litystä, esimerkiksi espanjaksi nimi tarkoittaa ”pientä pusua”. ”Besi ” puolestaan tarkoittaa silmälaseja, samoin kuin binokel, josta on saanut nimensä pinochle-pe- li. Näiden pelien alkuperäisessä pakassa beziquen pa- takuningatar ja ruutusotilas ovat ainoat yksisilmäiset kuvakortit, mutta yhdessä parilla on kaksi silmää. Tie- däpä näistä. 1800-luvun alkupuolella Ranskassa kehitetty bezi- que oli yhtä kaikki suuri hitti 1900-luvun alkuun asti ja muun muassa Winston Churchillin suosikkipeli. 1900-luvun lopulla pelin suosio kuitenkin kuihtui. Be- zique on kuitenkin mielenkiintoinen kaksinpeli, jossa pisteiden kerääminen tikkejä pelaamalla on jäänyt lä- hes tyystin pois ja pääpaino on arvokkaiden yhdistel- mien muodostamisessa käteen. Pinochle on eurooppalaisten siirtolaisten Yhdys- valtoihin viemä peli, joka oli 1900-luvun alkupuolel- la maan toiseksi suosituin peli heti bridgen jälkeen. Senkin suosio on hiipunut. Kaksinpelinä se muistuttaa hyvin paljon beziqueta, mutta pinochlesta on myös erilaisia useamman pelaajan muunnelmia tarjouskier- roksilla ja niin edelleen. •.Salasuhteita.•.229 Bezique Pelaajia: 2 • Pakka: 2 x 32 korttia Bezique on nimetty pelin olennaisen yhdistelmän, pa- takuningattaren ja ruutusotilaan luvattoman suhteen, mukaan. Kahden pakan bezique oli suurinta huutoa Pariisin klubeilla 1840-luvulla. Se levisi Euroopas- sa, esiteltiin englanniksi ensimmäisen kerran vuon- na 1861 ja sai pian yhä monimutkaisempia muotoja. Niinpä se jäi lopulta nopeamman ja notkeamman gini- rommin jalkoihin. Bezique on silti hieno peli, jos sille suo aikaa ja kärsivällisyyttä. Pelin tavoite Pelissä yritetään kerätä 1 000 pistettä keräämällä ti- keissä pistekortteja ja pöytäämällä yhdistelmiä. Peliä pelataan tuplapakalla, jossa on kaksi 32 kortin pakkaa.

  • Bezique Markers, 1860-1960 by Tony Hall September 2018
    Bezique Markers, 1860-1960 By Tony Hall September 2018 I have written extensively elsewhere about the evolution of gaming and whist markers from the 18th century onwards1. The story is helped by records, the markers themselves and the labours of earlier enthusiasts who managed to piece together parts of the history. Narrating the story of bezique markers is not so easy for a number of reasons. First, no- one to my knowledge seems to have done it before. Second, there are a plethora of “boxed sets” available on eBay and other auctions which frequently comprise a collection of items from different sources which have been randomly put together for sale. As always, caveat emptor. Third, Bezique, although popular for a time, was never as popular as whist and whereas whist is still played, bezique players appear to be few and far between. However, new sets can still be bought today and I read on the net that the game still “has many devoted followers”. I just don’t know any of them. Yet, at their best, bezique markers are no less interesting than those for whist, and as such can be very stylish and tactile and have their own story. As the collector of (currently) some 200 or so such markers, 60 or so bezique boxed sets and many early books on the game, I have set about the task of trying to identify their evolution. Any corrections, endorsements or further information would be most welcome. In an echo of my much earlier school days, I have endeavoured to “show my working” as I have attempted to date items so that others may learn, make corrections, add information or offer different views.

  • Pinochle-Rules.Pdf
    Pinochle From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Pinochle (sometimes pinocle, or penuchle) is a trick-taking Pinochle game typically for two, three or four players and played with a 48 card deck. Derived from the card game bezique, players score points by trick-taking and also by forming combinations of cards into melds. It is thus considered part of a "trick-and- meld" category which also includes a cousin, belote. Each hand is played in three phases: bidding, melds, and tricks. In some areas of the United States, such as Oklahoma and Texas, thumb wrestling is often referred to as "pinochle". [citation needed] The two games, however, are not related. The jack of diamonds and the queen of spades are Contents the "pinochle" meld of pinochle. 1 History Type Trick-taking 2 The deck Players 4 in partnerships or 3 3 Dealing individually, variants exist for 2- 4 The auction 6 or 8 players 5 Passing cards 6 Melding Skills required Strategy 7 Playing tricks Social skills 8 Scoring tricks Teamwork 9 Game variations 9.1 Two-handed Pinochle Card counting 9.2 Three-handed Pinochle Cards 48 (double 24 card deck) or 80 9.3 Cutthroat Pinochle (quadruple 20 card deck) 9.4 Four-handed Pinochle 9.5 Five-handed and larger Pinochle Deck Anglo-American 9.6 Check Pinochle 9.7 Double-deck Pinochle Play Clockwise 9.8 Racehorse Pinochle Card rank A 10 K Q J 9 9.9 Double-deck Pinochle for eight players (highest to 10 See also lowest) 11 References 12 External links Playing time 1 to 5 hours Random chance Medium History Related games Pinochle derives from the game bezique.

  • Piquet: the Game and Its Artifacts
    Piquet: the game and its artifacts by Tony Hall iquet may be the oldest card game which is still played today with origins going back to early 16th Century. And yet, the cards and paraphernalia designed for the P game are relatively rare, or misunderstood, compared with those for other games such as whist, bezique and cribbage. Alongside my substantial collections of materials for these other three games1, I have amassed a modest collection of books, markers and boxed sets for Piquet which is the subject of this brief essay. Part of the explanation for the relative ignorance of the game may lie in the description of Piquet by Basil Dalton writing in 1921 when he said: “Enthusiasts would certainly claim that it is the finest card game for two players; but, though a first favourite with all classes in France, and a “craze” with the “Bucks” of the Regency period in England, it has never become popular here in the sense in which “Cribbage” and “Nap” are popular.”2 In 1873, Henry Jones (“Cavendish”) published the first edition of “Cavendish on Whist”. My copy, here, is the 9th edition published by De La Rue in 1899. However, a lot happened between 1873 and 1899. According to subsequent writers on the subject, it was this book from Cavendish which reintroduced and popularised Piquet in Britain, being the first to do so since Hoyle’s Treatise on the subject in 1744. It was Cavendish who encouraged the Portland & Turf Clubs to draw up a Code of Laws which was reproduced in full in his 1873 book as a prelude to his scholarly analysis of the origins of the game and treatise on how to play.
