How Playing Cards and Suits Came to Be

December 6th, 2009 by Tom Kearns
by Thomas Kearns

In the second half of the–th century merchants introduced what was then commonly called “Saracen cards” into medieval Europe. Those who had survived the bubonic plague moved to cities, where they formed a new class of merchants and craftsmen - the urban bourgeois.

December 5th, 2009 by Thomas Kearns
by Thomas Kearns

“A tell” or “tells” are body language which has the potential to reveal information concerning the opponent’s hand. Keeping a good eye open for it is a fun challenge and something you should learn to do. It may decide the outcome of the game like nothing else and it keeps you from fidgeting.
