Durak :)

Durak is a Russian card game. One variant is called "transferable durak" (perevodnoy durak, «переводной дурак»), which permits passing on cards on attacks in certain instances. Other variants alter the ways a defender may "pick up" and the number of cards which can be "piled on" after a defender has picked up.

The object of the game is to be the first player to get rid of one's entire hand after the deck has run out.

In some Durak circles, it is far more important to not be the player left with cards at the end of the game. Hence, there is no winner, only a loser.


understandably, nobody wants that.

yet everyone likes to gamble.


some day I'll pull out the trump.
