Calabresella
Calabresella, Calabragh, sometimes spelled Calabrasella, "the little Calabrian game", also known as Terziglio, is an Italian trick-taking card game variation of Tressette for three players, but it can be played by four with the dealer receiving no cards for the hand. One of the earliest references of the game dates from 1822.
The overall aim is to be the first to make a score of 21 points. In each deal, one person, known as the soloist, plays against the other two with the aim of capturing in tricks cards totalling at least 6 of the 11 points available for counters and the last trick. The soloist is determined by auction. The game moves to the right.
Calabresella is played with an Italian pack, consisting of a King (Re), Knight/Cavalier (Cavallo, literally meaning Horse), and a Knave (Fante, literally meaning Footsoldier) and the pip cards 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, ace in 4 suits of Batons (Bastoni), Swords (Spade), Cups (Coppe) and Coins (Danari). The rather unusual rank of the cards goes as follows:
Each player receives twelve cards, dealt four at a time. The remainder forms the stock, which is left face downwards. The auction begins with the player at the dealer's right and proceeds counter-clockwise. Each player has a single chance to bid or pass. Each bid must be higher (later in the list) than the last.
The dealer has the last option. If one person announces the highest contract, the others team up against him. If all decline to play, the deal passes and the hands are abandoned.
The player on the dealer's right leads first. The highest card wins the trick, there being no trumps. Players must follow suit if possible. The single player and the allies, respectively, collect all the tricks they win.
The values of the cards are:
Card points are used to calculate who won the game. If the soloist won at least 6 points, he is credited with the score for the games:
