A card game is any game being played using cards, either the traditional 52-deck cards or game-specific ones. Countless card games exist, including families of related games (such as poker). Some games have formally standardized rules, while rules for others can vary by region, culture, and person. Professional card players particularly play a lot of emphasis on rules, while casual players decide on house rules.
There are various types of card games such as trick-taking games, shedding games, accumulating games and matching games. Theses games have different objects and rules.
In matching games such as Rummy for example, the object is to acquire the required groups of matching cards before an opponent can do so. In Rummy, this is done through drawing and discarding. Mah-Jongg is a very similar game played with tiles instead of cards. In shedding games on the other hand, players start with a hand of cards, and the object of the game is to be the first player to discard all cards from one's hand. Examples include Daihinmin and Crazy Eights. Certain card games such as Solitaire are meant to played by one player only.
