***Official*** Trump thread (2 Viewers)

This is a thread for discussion of the family of trick-taking card games involving a trump suit, including (but not limited to) Hearts, Spades, Euchre, Pitch, Whist, Tarneeb, Catch The Ten, and Boston. Share your stories, strategies, tips, and tricks, or organize a game in here. Anything goes, but keep it respectful. And absolutely no politics.

 
Why is Euchre a regional thing? Game rules. Miss playing it, nobody on the East Coast even knows what it is.

How do we still have regional games in 2016??

That's an interesting question. Is there something about card games that makes then an inherently local phenomenon? No matter where you go in the country, we're all watching the same movies, playing the same video games, reading the same books. Hell, we even have (mostly) the same drinking games. But you can peg where a person is from by their card game, perhaps even more reliably than their accent.

 
what's booray?

We used to play this after golf league in the clubhouse.  Ante $1.  Winner of most tricks gets the pot.  Anyone who stayed in and didn't win has to pay the pot the amount that was in there.  Was pretty great when we had 8 or 9 guys playing.  Pots easily up to a couple hundred.

I've seen some big checks written in this game.  When we got too drunk to continue playing Boo we switched to "In-Between"

Interesting,  I've never heard of that.  Sounds fun,  and potentially costly. 

 
i can see all the Libs sitting around Jonesing  to bash Trump ...literally teetering on the brink of insanity not being able to post in the FBG political threads that no longer exist hahaha...so funny

 
only heard about this game because of some dudes from Beloit i knew

jail game, no?
I don't know. I've never stayed a full night in jail. I played a lot in high school with my neighborhood friends who happened to be black. They introduced it to me. To this day, my favorite card game slightly beating out spades.

And yet here are the Trump guys jumping in to a thread about games trying to turn it into a political thread.
