We women always teamed up against the men and they nearly always lost. <BR/><BR/>Gary and I prefer word games (We're champion Balderdash players at big family gatherings.

That is a score in and of itself where no matter who wins you are still a winner.<BR/><BR/>My favorite game is Euchre, which from what I hear is a regional game not many know about, here is a link (not sure how to properly link in comments) http://www.gaissa.com/Card_Games/trick-taking/Euchre.htmKarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16800827994916656927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37871177.post-88067140359036075312009-01-04T18:45:00.000+10:002009-01-04T18:45:00.000+10:00I'm not much good at cards.

I'm just not much interested in spending a lot of time learning something that doesn't 'do' anything for me. Of course, you play a game that involves assets of a non-card variety. I'm thinking even Tim would go for a game like that...Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37871177.post-59824592657468565192009-01-04T18:30:00.000+10:002009-01-04T18:30:00.000+10:00As you know I am a hopeless card player... too eas...As you know I am a hopeless card player... too easily distracted!
