Pinochle is a popular card game that uses a special deck of 48 cards (two each of the aces, face cards, tens, and nines of all four suits), and may be played as a two-handed, three-handed, or partnership game. The main object of the game is to form melds of three or more cards. Pinochle is the American version of "Bezique", and is a popular game for both casual and tournament play.
