Summary: Playing cards date back to ancient China, where they are believed to have originated when paper currency was both the vehicle for the card games and the bet. One popular card game that incorporates playing cards is euchre. Euchre is a card game based on trick-taking and trump cards that is played with a deck of 24 cards. It is very popular in the British Isles, New Zealand, Australia and Canada. Euchre has declined in popularity in the United States recently due to the rise of poker, but is still played in New York state and the Midwest.
