I love to play Gin Rummy. My father taught me how to play. I never could beat him.
I also love Solitaire. However, when at a casino, I don't play card games, I don't feel comfortable enough.
I don't know how to play poker, it looks complicated, though I wish I could learn.

Blackjack
Solitaire

It changed as I grew older.

As a youngster we played fish, knuckles, war, old maid and crazy eights. As a teenager a great Italian card game was Brisk. We played teams for a quarter a person. When I got married. Michigan and 500 rummy was played a lot. With the guys it was poker, hearts and blackjack.

Now it's strip poker with all the young women I can find. Needless to say I don't play cards much.

:rofl: Cute!!!!! I like that...strip poker (the joke, not the game mind you;) )

I also like Gin Rummy as well as Solitare, Blackjack, Go Fish, and this other game called War. I don't know how to play Poker either. Hopefully someday I'll learn.

The way Brooklyn is structured (10 miles long with 2.7 million people," we had to build straight up not across. There was no internet access so you you had to interact. On rainy days and most lived in partment complexes, we would meet on some floor and play the rainy day games, hide and Seek, marbles, checkers, flip cards and of course play card games till our mothers would call us to eat. Slap jack was another good game as was crazy eights. Kids of today don't realize how much fun we had being with each other, enjoying each other and just talking.

Now back to strip poker. The key words to remember are flimsy and sheer.

I love playing Blackjack, Gin and Spades.

Texas Holdem.

I don't play any that much anymore, but I used to like playing Spades, or 500 Rummy with my friends while in the army. Recently, someone showed my how to play Texas holdem poker, but I haven't played it with anyone.

For a while last year, I was playing free-cell and solitaire on the computer, and was really into both for a while, but then burned out on it.

When I was in my late teens/early twenties, some of my buddies and I would play seven-card stud and draw poker on Friday nights. I liked the games, as well as the relaxation, social or recreational aspect of getting together with your friends, talking, having snacks etc.

There's another card game called "31", or Blitz--great game.

As a little kid, of course, there was the standard crazy eights, war. At New Years Eve/Christmas/other holiday get-togethers at my aunt's apartment in the Bronx when I was young, the adults would let me and my cousins play Michigan Rummy. I don't remember the game that much, but I remember being excited about winning.

Someone mentioned the Italian card game Brisk; is that the same as "Briscola"?
Another great Italian card game is "scoba" or "sweep". Only two can play it and it moves fast and you have to think quick. Very easy to learn. Anyone ever hear of it?

My parents used to play Canasta: I could never understand the game. And some of our neighbors from the midwest would play Eucre till all hours. They seemed to be having a good time.

I never liked Hearts: Too many cards to hold in your hand!

I enjoy playing Spider Solitaire on the computer.

I've seen that, but I've never played it.

Gin, Spades, Crazy Eights, and Texas Hold Em with my boyfriend, who is 329585636523x better than me.

Playing Spades electronically usually pisses me off, but I still do it.

Texas Hold 'em (extremely addicting). Other poker games like 5 card draw and Omaha, though I haven't played a lot of Omaha. Spades and Gin are also pretty fun.

Before I was in my musical, I only played Go Fish, Canasta, and War. After the musical, I now know how to play BS, Spit, and I was taught the basis of Rummy, but didn't understand. Spit's my favorite because it moves so fast. I want to learn Poker SO BAD.

OMGah, no one plays spoons?

my favorites are Dutch Blitz which is a version of Salitare but with groups, euchre, pitch, golf, uno, phase 10, skip bo, rook & rummy

Rummy, Spades, and Cribbage, and I like playing Hearts and Spider Solitaire on the computer.

I LOVE Spades. It's addicting.
Phase 10.

B.S.
Mafia (sp?)
Spoons
Gin

Poker, Strip Poker, Black Jack, Gin and Bridge.

45's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Free Cell on the computer.

I'm not picky. I'll play anything(for money of course).

I dont know if this counts but i like to play UNO a lot.

I dont know if this counts but i like to play UNO a lot.

52 Pickup! :rofl:

Hahahaha....

Well, it's been a while since I have played Solitaire, but I like it.

If you also count "Apples to Apples" as a card game, then I really like it. It's a word association game. Quite fun.

Solitaire but only on the computer
It is better on the computer...especially on POGO.

I like Solitaire,Go Fish,21 and blackjack......

I also like playing Concentration :)

Every time my grandmother and my stepgrandfather would visit my family during the wintertime when we would visit them my grandmother would always bring out Phase 10 and my mother and I didn't know what it was until my grandmother showed us how to play it and we found Phase 10 very entertaining and my mom was very good at it but the first two phases were hard for her and my grandmother always won those. Based on how we enjoyed Phase 10 my grandmother gave us her Phase 10 game and she brought another Phase 10 game for herself. Another card game my godfather and godmother liked to play with friends at parties was Skip-Bo and every time I went on vacation to visit my godfather he always liked playing Skip-Bo with my family and he was the one that got my mom obsessed with Skip-Bo and even today my mother still loves Skip-Bo and even has an handheld Skip-Bo game that I bought her for Christmas. Have you also heard of a card game called Camcia? It's a card game that's from Italy and the game's name comes from the Italian word for shirt and is very popular in Italy. I don't know how it's played but I learned about Camcia in my copy of The Daring Book For Girls

Solitaire

Poker

Enjoyed playing War with my siblings back in the day

Yes! I remember the card game War , we used to play it. Also Crazy 8's, Kings in the corner , Go Fish, Old Maids ( my favorite ) ! :)

Never got into any adult type card games like Poker or Bridge ! ;)

I remember War also.......

hearts

Hearts is probably my favorite....although I'm surrounded by Spades people lol I've learned most people typically go for either Hearts or Spades, and Hearts people will enjoy Spades, but Spades people usually refuse to play Hearts
