Canasta is my favorite of the group though, used to spend all day playing it on weekends back in the day.

| #22 Posted on 20.12.05 0444.00 | Instant Rating: 8.81 | Much of my senior year English class was killed playing "Shitkickers" (pronounced "Shit-Kik-ahz")
It's really just a slight variant on a game that people know as Palace, Karma, or Shithead (pagat.com).
It may have just been a right-place-right-time kind of thing, what with old friends knowing their high school days are winding down and talking enormous amounts of trash. But we loved it so.
(Our rule variants were such: Four down, four up, four card hand, jokers force the next player to pick up the discard pile and lose a turn)
Since nobody plays that though, Hold em is as good a game as any.
A fun, sexy time.

| #24 Posted on 20.12.05 0929.44 | Instant Rating: 5.75 | Since I started watching Texas Hold Em, that is all I play. I play it sometimes at poker.com and at partypoker.net (MysteryMatt is my name at both places), and a group of us Target workers will go down to a diner most mornings after work and play Hold Em until the food gets delivered.
And to Geemoney, I enjoy Phase 10 a great deal. I seem to get beat at it quite a bit though as well.

Most of you probably haven't heard of it, as it is a regional game from where I live (Merrimack Valley section of MA and Southern NH). Supposedly, it was brought down by immigrants from the atlantic provinces of Canada (maybe some canadian wieners might know of it?).
Here is a website dedicated to it. It is a site that sells a computerized version of the game, but it also has a section that explains the rules.

| #30 Posted on 21.12.05 1305.16 | Instant Rating: 5.58 | Hearts and Gin Rummy. Gin is great because you can play for money or for fun; and unlike rummy, you don't need to pile cards all over the place. It's very nicely portable. But I love hearts. Unlike spades, there's no damn partner getting in the way. There's no need to cooperate at all. Instead, you can sit down to a devoted strategy of giving the Queen of Spades to whomever has the lowest points, during every hand. And then laughing, with relish.
Also, I tend to shoot the moon a lot. And when I fail; ah, screw it... back to handing out the Queen of Spades to everyone else until I bring their scored up toward mine.

We grew up playing Spite and Malice, it's played with two decks and I've never met anyone outside my family who has played it.
