Put (card Game) - Analogy

Analogy

The name Put, pronounced "u", like the name of the English village of Putney, derives from "putting up your cards in cafe", if you do not like them, or from "putting each other to the shift". It is so easy to learn and fun to play that it would be a pity to omit it from the core curriculum of card game learners. It is essentially a game of bluff rather than calculation. Like the game of Brag, it depends in a great measure upon the boldest player, and by assuming a superiority in hand, either by your look, or by any other means your antagonist is apt to be intimidated.

Famous quotes containing the word analogy:

    The whole of natural theology ... resolves itself into one simple, though somewhat ambiguous proposition, That the cause or causes of order in the universe probably bear some remote analogy to human intelligence.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
