e/Quadrille (card game)

New Query

Information
has glosseng: Quadrille is a Spanish trick-taking card game directly ancestral to Boston and chief progenitor of Solo whist. It was perfected in early 18th century France as a four-handed version of the Spanish card game Ombre , which was superseded as a fashionable game in about 1726 , although it still remained as one of the great European games over a hundred years in France and England until it was ousted by partnership Whist. Its chief problem was that of extreme complexity, its upside-down ranking system in two suits, non-standard bids and a hard-score pay-off system of extreme complexity.
