Piquet for Windows 8

A Piquet game consists of a set of 6 deals called a partie with the deal alternating. Each player is dealt 12 cards, with 8 left as a talon. A deal consists of three parts: discarding a number of cards and replacing them from the talon to try to improve the hand, declaring various features in the hand, and then playing the cards in tricks. Piquet is a very old game. It was well established by 1650 with similar rules to the present ones. It has retained its popularity to the present day as one of the best and most skilful card games for two players. The rules described are those published by Cavendish in 1882.
