Card games

Ispit - as it is called in our household, is one family entertainer for the adults.

Kids under the age of 20 are not allowed to participate .... and most kids in the family seem to have mastered the skill even before they start playing, just by observing. (me included)

Cards is not played in our house for money ... its for fun .... "Nirmal Anand ke liye Khelte hain".

We play lots of games

* 250 points Rummy

* Best of 7 (limited to 7 games)

* 28

* Hearts

* Oh hell (*not sure about the origin of the name*) ... sometimes called Justice

* 26

* Donkey

* Set

Of these the last 3 days has seen us playing Oh hell, 26 , Best of 7 and Rummy .... It had been almost 2 years since I played cards ... I was pleasantly surprised to find out no degradation in my expertise :)
