Friend and I have been playing Durak, which is apparently the most popular game in Russia. Durak means fool.

We call it Oh Hell, but I have played that game since I was a child. Not many other people I know have heard of it. Great game.

Speed is pretty fun but Rummy is the correct answer. My wife and I have some major battles in rummy. Winner gets a special surprise from the loser.

It very well may be called that.

This may be the first time I ever typed it out and I've always heard "ole" vs "oh".

My old grandpaw can still destroy me and all my siblings. We like to think we’re pretty smart, but he’s always 2-3 moves ahead of us.

Depends on what type of card game.

Push your luck: Port Royal


Trick taking: David and Goliath (multi-player), Fox in the Forest (2 player)





In General: For Sale



So many other great ones that don't involve a 52 card deck.

Nowhere in your post did you talk about going out double or making the Queen of Spades worth 50 pts.

I'm afraid you've never played a real game of Rummy, friend.

OP, you should also look at Ticket to Ride, which has a Rummy-esque set collection aspect to it. Same with Coloretto.

I had to look this up, but it's just what we call Rummy. I've never played any other way. I agree with Cadillac too. Other honorable mentions are Casino, Rooks, and Hearts.

I had friends that failed out of school because of Hearts games.
