Belote is a popular 32-card trick-taking game played in France.
|
||
|
It derived around 1920, probably via Clobyosh, from Klaverjassen, a game
|
||
|
played since at least the 1600s in the Netherlands. Closely related
|
||
|
games are played throughout the world.
|
||
|
Within the game's terminology, belote is used to designate a pair of a
|
||
|
King and a Queen of a trump suit, possibly yielding the game's name
|
||
|
itself.
