    The ace of spades was picked for the stamp because it makes for a better Motorhead song.

    Amazing how they can make something as loathesome as taxation so aesthetically pleasing.

    Can you do one on how Bicycle became the number 1 card maker in America?

    Notice when they make claims but don't provide sources to back it up.

    If you’re ever in Branson, MO check out their board game cafe. It has to be one of the best in the country and they have a decent amount of traditional card games including a Bahama Taxi board (which you’ll have to ask for). I think you and your audience would love the place.

      Sounds fun, I’ll have to get the Bahama Taxi rules down first!

    the spades on helmets during D-day where lot a good luck charm, they where for rapidly identifing what unit a soldier was from, some men had harts, clovers or diamonds.
    only the 506th had spades, wikipedia gets this one wrong.

    I have 4 French pattern decks from different manufactures (Cartamundi, Ducale, an advertising firm and Dal Negro) who all have a 1 as index on the ace instead of A. Dal Negro and Ducale have the exact same stamp on the clubs as shown in 2:14 with their logo underneath. They also both have the names of the corresponding historical figures printed on the court cards, which I found quite interesting. Cartamundi has their logo on the ace of spades. I sadly couldn't find anything on the advertisement deck.

      ​@@Play-In-Games I bought the Dal Negro and Cartamundi decks from a supermarket in 2021, so not that long ago! The other ones came from thrift shops though, thus I don't know in which year they were produced.

    In the Netherlands we have a famous card game of Toepen. Can you make a tutorial about it one time?

    • @Play-In-Games
      @Play-In-Games  10 месяцев назад +2

      Possibly, I don’t have a card game from there yet, so it sounds like a fun challenge. Does it play with a 52 card deck?

    The night Cliff Burton from Metallica died he drew cards with Kirk. Whoever got the high card got the top bunk. Kirk drew a 10, Cliff drew an Ace of Spades.

    Hey Chris, do you know something about the german card game of Skat? I hope you do, trying to learn this game has given me a very confusing and hard time.

      As it happens, I’m planning to meet up with some Germans next month and have them show me how. I want to make sure I get it right, it’s an important classic.

    I might not know exactly why they choose the spades as their Symbol. But it seems like the ace of spades actually appears naturally on a whales body part m.ruclips.net/user/shortsCpe5Lo8Mgfg
