  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Card Games to Play7
    Card Games to play7 Great Classic Card Games for Children Many classic card games are appropriate for young children, and the simplest can be played by kids as young as 3 years old. | Source 1. Memory (Concentration) • Ages: 3+ • Players: 2–4 How to Play 1. Deal out all the cards facedown on the table. 2. Players take turns to flip over 2 cards. If they flip over a pair that matches, they win the pair and get to have another go. If not, the next player takes a turn. 3. If you are playing with a standard set of cards, you can either allow matching the same number and same colour card or just the same value. 4. At the end, the player with the most cards wins. Variations You can also play Memory as a one-player game. Use a timer to try and get as many pairs as possible in 3 minutes. Try and beat your own score (or someone else's). 2. Snap • Ages: 3+ • Players: 2–6 (best with 3 or more) How to Play Play Snap with traditional playing cards, or buy a set of themed Snap cards. Themed Snap can be especially fun for children, and you can choose a theme to suit their interests (or to teach them numbers, maths or specific words). 1. Deal out the cards around all the players so each player has a pile of cards which they place facedown. 2. The first player turns over the card at the top of their pile and starts a pile in the centre.

  • The Effective Use of Games in the German As a Foreign Language (Gfl) Classroom
    THE EFFECTIVE USE OF GAMES IN THE GERMAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE (GFL) CLASSROOM Marion Ulrike Greiner A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2010 Committee: Geoffrey C. Howes, Advisor Kristie Foell ii ABSTRACT Geoffrey C. Howes, Advisor This thesis considers the reasons why language learning games are a powerful and effective language teaching tool. It defines the term “language learning game” and examines its typical characteristics. The thesis also discusses the different types of language learning games. Language learning games are commonly understood to have motivational and enjoyable aspects. Despite cognitive and neurological evidence the instructional effectiveness of language learning games is still questioned by critics. This thesis strongly states that necessary research is missing to convince critics of games’ instructional value. Individual subchapters consider the implications of using language learning games in terms of the teacher’s role, the student’s role, productive error correction and cost-effectiveness. The thesis also discusses practical issues of how to make language learning games actually work in class. These include in-class organization, useful language for playing and organizing games, forms of classroom interaction and classroom setting. In addition to a presentation of decisive factors for the suitability of games, potential problems in the classroom are also discussed. In this thesis the author also presents a collection of accuracy-focused and fluency-focused language learning games that allow teachers to help students develop communicative competence in the foreign language. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am deeply grateful to many individuals who supported me while writing this thesis.
