Do you want to have fun by learning to play Pinochle?
Our Pinochle players are wanting to teach you!
Mondays 12:30pm
Have you been wanting to learn the art of the Pinochle card game? pinochle, American card game typically played by three players acting alone (cutthroat) or four players in two partnerships. The game derives from a German variety of bezique called binokel (French binocle). All these names mean “eyeglasses” (literally “two-eyes”) and refer to the scoring combination of queen of spades and jack of diamonds, allegedly because the game originated with a deck of cards in which these courtly characters were depicted in profile, exhibiting one eye apiece and therefore two eyes in combination. Come check it out on Mondays 12:30 pm.
