Briscola (''briškula'' in Croatian, ''brìscula'' in Sicilian, ''brìšcula'' or ''brišc'' in Neapolitan, ''Skembeel'' in Libya, ''brisca'' in Spanish and Catalan, ''bisca'' in Portuguese, ''bixkla'' in Maltese, ' in Slovene) one of Italy's most popular games together with Scopa and Tressette, and a little-changed descendant of Brusquembille, the ancestor of Briscan and Bezique,〔Oxford Dictionary of Card Games, David Parlett, pg. 47 - Oxford University Press 1996 ISBN 0-19-869173-4〕 is a Mediterranean trick-taking card game for two to six players played with a standard Italian 40-card deck. Apart from the Northern Mediterranean, the game is also popular in Puerto Rico. It is usually considered to be an elaboration from an original Dutch card game related to klaviaas, perhaps transmitted by sailors. (A confirming piece of evidence comes from the curious expression when one team wins all the points, called a cappotto. This is a puzzling term, as it means coat jacket in Italian, but may descend from Kapot, meaning complete defeat in Dutch). Relative to the Dutch game, where players need to follow suit, briscola rules allow any card to be played. This makes the game more unpredictable, as trump cards cannot be easily neutralized and may be played strategically at any point in time. The game can also be played with a modern Anglo-French deck, without the eight, nine and ten cards (see Portuguese variations below). With three or six players, twos are removed from the deck to ensure the number of cards in the deck is a multiple of the number of players; a single two for three players and all four twos for six players. The four- and six-player versions of the game are played as a partnership game of two teams, with players seated such that every player is adjacent to two opponents. ==The cards== A deck of Italian cards consists of forty cards, divided into four suits: coins (''Denari'' in Italian, and sometimes suns or sunbursts), swords (''Spade''), cups (''Coppe'') and clubs (sometimes batons, bats or ''Bastoni''). The values on the cards range numerically from one through seven, plus three face cards in each suit: Knave (''Fante'' in Italian), Knight (''Cavallo'' in Italian), and King (''Re'' in Italian). A Knave is a lone human figure standing. The Knight is a human figure riding a horse. The King is a human figure wearing a crown. To determine the face value of any numeric card, simply count the number of suit icons on the card. The ace card of coins is usually a type of bird with circle in the middle. Below is a table identifying card rank and point values. Unlisted cards have no point value, and are ranked in descending ordinal value, from seven to two. Note however the odd ranking of the three. In total, a deck has 120 points. To win a game, a player must accumulate more points than any other player. If two players (teams) have same number of points (60) another game is played to determine the winner. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Briscola」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
