Trick Taking

A play of cards or tiles by several players which is won by one of them.

Trick Taking is the action in card games where each player plays one card in turn and all the cards, forming a trick, is won by one of the players. Often winning is determined by playing the highest card in one suit although trumps may beat this.

Examples

Many well-known Card Games use Trick Taking. Examples include Contract Bridge, Hearts, and Whist.

42 is a Trick Taking game played with dominoes rather than with cards.
