When i was in college I played cards quite a bit and my asian friends played a game they called *babi* not sure on exact spelling.

I still play it now with my mates but there are a couple of rules i am hazy on and wanted to look up the rules for the game i can't find the card game i am talking about on the net so I am assuming that there is another name for it.

You can play with anywhere between 3 and i think i have seen about 10 players in one game.


Played with the ace of spades starts and everyone has to follow suit whoever puts the highest card down starts the next round and can put whatever card they like down if a player doesnt hat of the cards already put down then they *cut* meaning they put a different suit down and whoever has the highest card down at that time picks up the cards.

The aim of the game is to get rid of all your cards.


It is similar to whist but in whist you keep the cards you have won and at the end the person with the most rounds wins that isnt the case with the game i played in college.

Cheers James
