惠斯特, 惠斯特游戏
a game of cards in which there are four players who team into two pairs and each aims to win more cards than their opponent
Whist is a classic trick-taking card game that became popular in England in the 18th century. It is usually played by four players in two teams, using a standard 52-card deck. The goal is to score points by winning tricks, which are rounds of cards played by each player. Players take turns playing one card, and the highest card in the leading suit or the trump suit wins the trick. The trump suit is decided at the start of each game by revealing the last card dealt. Teams try to win as many tricks as possible, with points awarded based on the tricks won.
