Whist

Whist

Whist is a classic card game in vogue in the eighteenth and nineteenth century, evolution of the oldest Ruff and Honor. Although the rules are extremely simple, the game requires a scientific analysis, and since the only data available to a player are their 13 cards, it is difficult to be able to play it with quality. In the early days numerous books were written about the art of playing Whist. Edmond Hoyle, author of "according to Hoyle," wrote a handbook that became famous. By the end of the nineteenth century, a set of rigid rules described the rules of play, its label, and the necessary techniques, which required great commitment to learning. In the early twentieth century the contracted bridge, which shared many features of Whist, became the most popular game among "serious" players. Nevertheless, Whist continued to play in Great Britain, often in local tournaments called "whist drives". Whist è un classico gioco di carte in voga nel diciottesimo e diciannovesimo secolo, evoluzione del più antico Ruff and Honours. Nonostante le regole siano estremamente semplici, il gioco richiede un'analisi scientifica e, dal momento che i soli dati a disposizione di un giocatore sono le proprie 13 carte, è difficile riuscire a giocarlo con qualità. Agli albori vennero scritti numerosi libri sull'arte di giocare a Whist. Edmond Hoyle, autore di "according to Hoyle", scrisse un manuale divenuto famoso. Alla fine del diciannovesimo secolo un insieme di regole rigide descrivevano le leggi del gioco, la sua etichetta e le tecniche necessarie, le quali richiedevano grande impegno per l'apprendimento. Nei primi anni del ventesimo secolo il bridge contratto, che condivide molte caratteristiche del Whist, diventò il gioco più popolare tra i giocatori "seri". Nondimeno, il Whist continuò ad essere giocato in Gran Bretagna, spesso in tornei locali chiamati "whist drives".
