Read the full game description

This is another Karriere Poker/Great Dalmuti-like game with the requisite minor twists and tweaks. The deck is formed by combining two traditional card decks including jokers. Added are two special cards, one showing a large "A" the other a small "a". Players attempt to go out first or if not, to avoid being stuck with too many high point parts, especially not the "A" which ends up being passed from hand to hand. Re-implemented by: Ochs & Esel (2008) Who's the Ass? (2004)
