HOW TO PLAY SCOPA Each player gets 3 cards and 4 cards go face up on the table. On your turn play one card. If it matches a table card by value, take it. If not, you can take a group of table cards that add up to your card. The Fante is worth 8, the Cavallo 9 and the Re 10. Clear the whole table and you score a Scopa. At the end of the hand you score for the most cards, the most Denari, the Settebello (the 7 of Denari) and the Primiera.

HOW TO PLAY BRISCOLA Each player gets 3 cards and one card is turned up to set the trump suit, the briscola. Everyone plays one card per trick. The highest trump wins, otherwise the highest card of the suit that was led. Aces are worth 11, Threes 10, Re 4, Cavallo 3 and Fante 2. Draw after every trick and score more than 60 of the 120 points to win.
