Piquet

Common card · No. 344625

Piquet (; French pronunciation: [pikɛ]) is an early 16th-century plain-trick card game for two players that became France's national game. David Parlett calls it a "classic game of relatively great antiquity... still one of the most skill-rewarding card games for two" but one which is now only played by "aficionados and connoisseurs." The game is historically also known as Sant or Saunt, from the French Cent.
