Pinochle (sometimes Pinocle or Penuchle), is a trick-taking game typically for two or four players and played with a 48 card deck. Derived from the card game Bezique, players score points by trick-taking and also by forming combinations of cards into melds. Each hand is played in three phases: bidding, melds, and tricks.
A Pinochle deck consists of two copies of each of the 9, 10,
jack, queen, king, and ace cards of all four suits (spades, hearts, diamonds and clubs).
Aces are always considered high. The complete ordering of rank from highest to lowest is A, 10, K, Q, J, 9.
Variants of pinochle can be played by two, three, four, five or six players. These variations can combine two Pinochle decks called "double deck".
