Queen’s Card Play



The Queen Playing Card is a playing card with the picture of what appears to be a queen on its front surface. In a standard English deck of playing, the Queen of Hearts represents Elizabeth of York, who was the Queen Consort of Henry VII of England in the past. Card manufacturers in France have assigned each court card certain mythological or historical personages such as the Queen of Hearts and Queen of Spades as the Biblical figure Judith and mythological figure Athena, respectively. The Queen of Diamonds is assigned the name Rachel, also a Biblical figure, and the anagram of Regina—Argine—to the Queen of Clubs. A complete set of playing cards that includes the four Queens is called a pack in the British English, and deck in American English. The face of each card bears markings that distinguish it from the other cards in the pack or deck but its back is identical with all the other cards.

Various Queen’s card games. The Queen’s card is played in a variety of card games. One is called The Queen, a two-player card game of four rounds. Its objective is to have the first player to score seven points or the player with the highest number of points as winner after four rounds. But the player with the most points wins the game if neither of them scores seven points at the end of the four rounds.  Using a standard 52-card deck, the game is played between two players opposite each other with a table between them and one of them serving as dealer for the first round. The Queen of Spades card game is played usually in a group of four to 10 persons, split into two teams by choice or randomly. The player has the objective of winning the game by being the first to get to 2,000 points. Teammates are not seated next to each other but are spaced so that a member of the opposite team will be between them.

Dark Queen play. This is another way to play the Queen’s card with the objective of getting rid of all the cards, especially the black Queen from the players. The game begins by taking the Queen of Clubs from the deck to leave the other black Queen in it. The cards are dealt evenly among the players who must see if they have matches which, if any, are put to the side. A player who has no match in his hand holds his cards to the player to his right. This process goes on until only one player is left with the only card which is the black Queen.

Queen Anne’s game. A variant of a commercial card game, this is played with a normal 52-card deck among an ideal number of four players. Each of them is dealt three cards with different values which must not exceed 99. If one has the card Queen, the value is plus or minus 20, but the King makes the total 99 regardless of the value of the other cards. Card 10 has a value of 10 and cards 2,3,4, 5,6,7,8 and 9 have their respective face value.

Faerie Queen solitaire. This uses 104 cards of two decks for a solitaire game, with the aces moved to the foundations or card files when they are available. A King is removed from the deck and placed on the first tableau or file of cards, where all cards are dealt from the stockpile up to the next King. The rule prohibits moving of cards from one tableau to the next before the deal is completed. Fore more details click here.
