Card Game Recommendation

What card game would you recommend for a group of four people?

Hold-m with a double blind.

Re: Card Game Recommendation

Is holdem an appropriate game for a double date?

What is the 24 game?

Re: Card Game Recommendation

I do not earn on a regular basis. I should not gamble with money.

Re: Card Game Recommendation

Oh, I get your point.

What about the fact that it is immoral to create an illussion to my favorite people that they have a chance to win?

Re: Card Game Recommendation

Hmmm, morals are important but they are a personal thing too. Each person defines them a bit different. You must have noticed that DS has an extremely simple and workable viewpoint. I am not condoning that action though.

You must do what you feel is right of course. - Ben Kenobi

Re: Card Game Recommendation

How many times have you played holdem on a double date?

Re: Card Game Recommendation

I only double dated once in my entire life. We went to a restaurant and talked. She was a gorgeous, spoiled rich kid, brat.

Holdem was a job to me. I did play with my family for very small stakes because pokr in one form or another is a very popular pastime here.

Re: Card Game Recommendation

Oh, we found a five petalled flower and that led us to a conversation about why there are no organisms with three legs.
