Palace followed by Kings Corners.

How to play Palace if you don't know.

The game is great cause you have 3 cards facing down that you don't get to until the very end and it can totally change who goes out first.

Fun to pay with friends while drinking.

3 or more players are a must.

You can add more decks if you have enough players.

5 or 6 players is about perfect though.

euchre, though it is hard to find anyone outside of indiana that plays.

Michigan and Ohio are big on Euchre too.

Iowa too, at college it was hard to find people to play a real game (bridge, 500, spades). 😉

^^ indeed its fairly big here in Iowa. Also played it a lot in nebraska with a few different groups of people on hunting trips.

Seems like most people at my school know how to play euchre, pitch, various types of poker. But like zebano said, nothing along the lines of those games.
 
I really enjoy playing Hold 'em now, but I kind of suck. I grew up playing Blackjack, Gin rummy, and Cribbage. Hard to pick one because I enjoy them all, depending on what I am feeling like at the moment.

It's OK, no one ever played it but a small handful of us back in the early 60s.

It's like Go Fish, with seven suits.



Funny thing is each card is named after a country's capital. 45 years later, it is hard for me to see the words "Jakarta, Indonesia" without thinking "I in the Black".
 
Favorite is probably Spades.

I like playing these also:
Hearts
Euchre
Hold 'em

Really wanna learn how to play Bridge

Euchre is big in Ontario. A cottage classic.

I never heard of it until I went to college in Indiana, but my roommate from Michigan played it a lot. I never learned to play it while I was out there.
