(4 players) – Extremely popular as a social game in parts of Canada and the USA, Euchre can especially be fun when played in a casual tournament setting. Just 24 cards are used, with the Jacks being powerful “bowers”. One partnership is trying to win the most tricks from a five-card hand, with trump determined by a turned-up card. Ecarte (2 players) is an excellent trick-taking game that is very similar to Euchre, but better suited for a two-player game.
