Karnöffel ( part 1)

I would like to take a slight deviation from tarot for a moment, & consider one of the oldest card agmes known to us. partly the reason is that it got banned so often! the game in question is a rather relaxed game, once youve got the hang of it.

the game is for 4 players

THE DECK
now. the deck used for this game is customarily the special 48 card swiss deck. its suits are

bells=diamonds
flowers= hearts
acorns=clubs
sheilds=spades

the picture cards are the king the "ober" (equall to the queen) and "under" (the jack) also, the tens are represented as flags-but you can forget that, because it is seriously hard to get hold of
:)
otherwise, tale a normal 52 card deck, & remove the jokers & 2s
