You will learn how to play Tresette, Briscola, Sette e Mezza, and Orologio. I'll show you how to easily convert your standard deck of playing cards into the equivalent of an Italian deck of cards. Tresette and Briscola are trick taking games that can be played one on one or with partners. In Briscola it is illegal to signal your partner as to what cards you hold. That being said, it is a time honored tradition to signal your partner without the other team knowing it.
I've included my own method for signaling your partner. It is based on the techniques of card sharpers of the 1930's. You will learn the rules, basic and advanced strategy and methods on how to know what cards are still out. Sette e Mezza (Italian Blackjack) This game is traditionally played at Christmas time. When we were kids, we'd get a hand full of pennies each and play cards for money just like the grown ups.
Orologio (The Watch) This is a betting game that gets it's name because the cards are placed face up in a circle. This fast paced game is based completely on luck. Also included; exercises designed to make you a better player and sample hands to help you understand the progression of the games.
