Category:Ace–ten games

Ace–ten games are trick-taking card games in which cards are assigned values so that typically aces and tens are the most valuable cards. In many cases the values are as shown in the table. In some games, such as bezique, they have been simplified dramatically. In standard Spanish- or Italian-suited decks the ten does not exist, and another card takes its role.

In earlier games of this type the ten ranks between the jack and nine. In more recent games the ten often ranks between the ace and king.
