Big Two



         


The card game Big Two is a variety of President (or Asshole).

The game is popular in East Asia, especially Hong Kong and Taiwan. It is played both casually and as a gambling game.

The main variations are:

  1. Suit matters - Spade > Heart > Club > Diamond. So a Single can beat another Single of same rank with a higher suit. Also, a double can beat a double if it has the Spade of that rank.
  2. "Poker" hands are played. This includes Straights, Flushes, Full House and Four-Of-A-Kind. They cannot be played on singles/doubles/triples, and vice-versa. Higher hands beat lower hands.
  3. 2 does not beat doubles, only it is the highest single (Jokers can beat everything, as always, if played with jokers)
