  • 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.

  • 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.
