  • Beaded Playing Cards – Ace of Hearts
    Beaded Playing Cards – Ace of Hearts Katie Dean https://beadflowers.co.uk Design © 2020 Beaded Deck of Playing Cards © Katie Dean 2020, www.beadflowers.co.uk Beaded Deck of Playing Cards – Ace of Hearts This is an even count Peyote beading pattern. You will be working with size 11/0 Delica beads. I have given you the bead colour codes I used, down below. But please check each individual playing card for the quantities you need for that particular card. The finished size of each card is 2.75” (7cm) x 4” (10.5cm). I recommend you look for wholesale packs of these beads if you are planning to make multiple cards. You can also calculate the total number required for an entire pack of cards by adding together the quantity on each playing card. The introduction, on the next page, tells you how to assemble the cards and gives you some helpful advice for using this tutorial. This is suitable for anyone who enjoys working in Peyote stitch. If you need to learn even count Peyote, or want a little refresher, I recommend this free YouTube video https://youtu.be/VlY5CNYhOc4 . As long as you know the technique basics, it is very easy to follow the word charts I have provided. So, all you need is a little patience and some time to enjoy this! Design Note: because I chose the quickest, easiest Peyote variation (even count), I have had to take some liberties with the card designs. So, you will notice they are not perfectly symmetrical. I have calculated enough symmetry to make them look ‘right’, but you will notice the unevenness as you bead.

  • BLACKJACK It’S Easy to Ace the Game of Blackjack, One of the Most Popular Table Games at Hollywood Casino and Around the World
    BLACKJACK It’s easy to ace the game of Blackjack, one of the most popular table games at Hollywood Casino and around the world. Object of the Game Your goal is to draw cards that total 21, or come closer to 21 than the dealer without going over. How To Play • The dealer and each player start with two cards. The dealer’s first card faces up, the second faces down. Face cards each count as 10, Aces count as 1 or 11, all others count at face value. An Ace with any 10, Jack, Queen, or King is a “Blackjack.” • If you have a Blackjack, the dealer pays you one-and-a-half times your bet — unless the dealer also has a Blackjack, in which case it’s a “push” and neither wins. • If you don’t have Blackjack, you can ask the dealer to “hit” you by using a scratching motion with your fingers on the table. • You may draw as many cards as you like (one at a time), but if you go over 21, you “bust” and lose. If you do not want to “hit,” you may “stand” by making a side-to-side waving motion with you hand. • After all players are satisfied with their hands the dealer will turn his or her down card face up and stand or draw as necessary. The dealer stands on 17 or higher. BLACKJACK Payoff Schedule All winning bets are paid even money (1 to 1), except for Blackjack, which pays you one-and-a-half times your bet or 3 to 2.

  • Tactical and Strategic Game Play in Doppelkopf 1
    TACTICAL AND STRATEGIC GAME PLAY IN DOPPELKOPF DANIEL TEMPLETON 1. Abstract The German card game of Doppelkopf is a complex game that in- volves both individual and team play and requires use of strategic and tactical reasoning, making it a challenging target for a com- puter solver. Building on previous work done with other related games, this paper is a survey of the viability of building a capable and efficient game solver for the game of Doppelkopf. 2. Introduction Throughout human history, games have served an important role, allowing real life prob- lems to be abstracted into a simplified environment where they can be explored and un- derstood. Today, games continue to serve that role and are useful in a variety of fields of research and study, including machine learning and artificial intelligence. By researching ways to enable computers to solve the abstracted, stylized problems represented by games, researchers are creating solutions that can be applied directly to real world problems. 2.1. Doppelkopf. Doppelkopf is a game in the same family as Schafkopf and Skat played mostly in northern areas of Germany. The rules are officially defined by the Deutscher Doppelkopf Verband [1], but optional rules and local variants abound. The game is played with a pinochle deck, which includes two each of the nines, tens, jacks, queens, kings, and aces of all four suits, for a total of 48 cards. As in many games, like Skat, Schafkopf, Spades, Bridge, etc., the general goal is to win points by taking tricks, with each trick going to the highest card, trump or non-trump, played.

  • Minor Suit Openings
    Minor Suit Openings Opening the Bidding Suppose you have a good enough hand to open the bidding. Opening bids of 1NT and 1 of a major are very descriptive and give us a good start in the auction, so if you can open 1NT or 1 of a major, you should certainly do that. If you do not have a balanced hand with 15-17 HCP, and you do not have a 5-card major, then you will have to open 1 of a minor. (Sometimes it is correct to open above the 1 level, but these bids have not been covered in class yet, so I will ignore them for now. Also, there is one situation in which you can open 1 of a minor despite having a 5 card major; if you have a longer minor { i.e. 5 spades and 6 diamonds { then you should start with the minor.) But in short, with an opening hand, you should open 1 of a minor if and only if 1NT and 1 of a major are not options. How do you know whether to open 1| or 1}? When we were discussing major suit openings, this was an easy decision: opening 1 of a major promises 5 cards in that major, and you probably don't have two 5 card majors. (If you do have two 5 card majors, you should open 1♠ . As a general rule, whenever you have two 5 card suits, you bid the higher ranking one first. This will allow you to safely bid the lower-ranking suit twice.

  • Reviewing with Playing Cards and Playing with Reviewing Cards the Cards Can Be Arranged in Sequences to Create Models to Guide Learning from Experience
    ♦ ♥♠ ♣ H Reviewing with Playing Cards and Playing with Reviewing Cards The cards can be arranged in sequences to create models to guide learning from experience. Let me first introduce what each of the five cards represent. The Joker is the blank or wild card that can mean anything you want it to. The Joker is = here for a serious reason. The Joker reminds us not to mistake the model for reality. Models are not reality. Models simplify reality. Every way of seeing is also a way of not seeing. The Joker allows exceptions and the freedom to experiment. The Diamond represents the experience as it first appears: a mixture of facts and impressions. It's sparkle catches our attention. What do we first notice, perceive or ♦ assume about it? It has many sides. What does it look like from other perspectives? How do others see it? The diamond is a valuable resource. How can we use it well? The Heart also represents the experience - how it felt and how it seemed. What emotions and intuitions are found within the experience? What was it like? Did it ♥ remind you of another experience? How was it similar/different? How intense, new, special, surprising, interesting, frustrating, disturbing, inspiring, comforting was it? The red cards (diamonds and hearts) together represent the story of the experience. ♦ This story describes the version of events from which learning and development will be derived through further reflection and analysis. The red cards flesh out the story. ♥ This is already a useful process, but you can take it further..

  • Mechanics of the Game
    - 1 - BRIDGE - BEGINNER'S LESSONS I - 01 Introductory Concepts – Vocabulary – Mechanics of the Game Bridge is a Partnership game in which each Player is designated by his/her compass direction. NORTH and SOUTH are PARTNERS playing against their OPPONENTS, EAST and WEST. The bridge deck consists of 52 cards with a total of four SUITS: CLUBS, DIAMONDS, HEARTS, and SPADES. Clubs and Diamonds are termed MINOR SUITS, Hearts and Spades are termed MAJOR SUITS. The cards in each suit are RANKED with the Ace being the highest, followed by the King, Queen, Jack, Ten ... then on down the line to the 2, the lowest ranking card. The suits are also ranked in alphabetical order: “C”lubs, "D”iamonds, "H”earts, and "S”pades. Clubs is the suit of lowest rank, and Spades the suit of highest rank. The cards are SHUFFLED and the deck is then dealt by the DEALER, one card at a time, face down, in a clock-wise direction, until each Player has 13 cards; comprising his/her HAND. The game of Bridge has two stages, the BIDDING PHASE followed by the PLAYING PHASE. During the second phase of any bridge hand, the playing phase, each Player contributes one card to each of thirteen turns, with the highest card winning, for his/her team, each series of four cards played. Each series of four cards played is called a TRICK. Since each Player contributes one card to each trick, there are, therefore, a total of thirteen available tricks to each hand that is played. In the first phase of bridge, the bidding phase, there is a continuous ROUND OF BIDDING, which, in an auction fashion, determines which Partnership will undertake a final CONTRACT.

  • Sheepshead Rules
    Sheepshead Rules Sheepshead players never play with a full deck. A Sheepshead deck contains 32 cards; the 2-6 of all four suits are removed. Fourteen cards are designated as a fixed trump suit. The trump suit contains the four queens, the four jacks, and the remaining diamonds. The remaining six hearts, clubs and spades are known as the "fail" suits. The trump cards are ranked from highest to lowest as follows: Q, Q, Q, Q, J, J, J, J, A, 10, K, 9, 8, 7. The six cards in each fail suit are ranked like the six lowest diamonds: A, 10, K, 9, 8, 7 The aces, tens and face cards have point values associated with them. A=11, 10=10, K=4, Q=3, and J=2 Thus there is a total of 120 points in the deck. The object of the game is to capture tricks containing 61 points or more, i.e. the majority of the points in the deck, during the play of each hand. After dealing a new hand, players establish roles that are essentially offensive and defensive. One player challenges the others, declaring intent to take tricks worth 61 points or more. If that player is successful the losers sacrifice points to the challenger. If the challenger loses, however, the "defensive" players gain twice as many points, in recognition of their upset victory. The Art of the Deal The 32 cards are dealt so that each player receives an equal number, with a few cards reserved. Three players should be dealt 10 cards, four players seven cards each and five players six cards each.
