what types of card games are there?
This isn’t so much a blackjack question as it is a question about card games in general. That’s not going to slow us down – we’ll answer the question anyway. Card games can be roughly “typed” into two groups initially: • Traditional card games using a 52 card deck with 4 suits and 13 ranks • Card games not using a traditional deck (like Magic the Gathering, for example.) Traditional card games can be further subdivided into other types, like: • Combining card games (like Canasta, Rummy, or Cribbage) • Comparing card games (like Poker and Blackjack) • Shedding and accumulating card games (like Solitaire and Go Fish) • Trick capturing card games (like Spades or Bridge) For more information about different types of card games, visit our main article on the subject here: Types of Card Games.
