| whats the difference between one deck and infinite deck? r they both the same? |
| My understanding of this is that an infinite deck means that any card can be drawn at any time, i.e. there are an infinite number of each card. With a single deck then each card can only be drawn once, until they are all used up and then the deck begins again |
Infinite - Infinite of one deck
One Deck - Only one time in a tavern game |
One Deck - Only one time in a tavern game
wrong, you should say only 1 same card in the set. as long as someone hold up that card, you will never get it |
only 1 same card in
This isnt always true
A deck consists of many cards, it is easily possible that some small cards are double in a single deck
But cards like dragons eye and dragons heart are only once in a deck, so with one deck you cant get them twice in 1 card game |

You obviously haven't played a long game at Yellow Lake. I've played games where the Dragons Eye was played at least 3 times.
With one deck you can only draw a particular card once until such time as the deck is reset or the card comes around again.
What I'm not sure of, is whether the deck resets after it is empty, or if a card is put on the bottom of the deck after it is played or discarded.
I'm hoping the former, because with the latter there would be a distinct pattern to the cards, which someone could take advantage of. I sometimes think I have seen that pattern repeat when the deck restarts, but without writing the cards down it's hard to be sure. |

That is with infinite decks, not with one deck, right ?
Or do you mean about the part that if you play with one deck, what will happen if all cards are played from that deck and no one did win yet
Well, i dont know that, i always go for the fast rounds with the tower to 50
All games give 1 gambler point, so whats the point in playing 2 hours for 1 point? |
That's with a single deck, not an infinite one.
Games at Yellow Lake can take a very long time. If it was only 1 deck through once it's likely that you would never finish a game at Yellow Lake, due to lack of cards.
These days I usually play at Great Capital or East Bay because it takes less time than most other locations. |
Ok.
One deck means that there is one single deck shared by both players and one a card is played, it is re-introduced into the dealing deck. At any one time, only one of any card can be in play. You cannot have 3 Dragons in your hand and if you are holding to a card, your opponent cannot ever get it until you play or discard.
Infinite deck is that you can get any card any time. It is possible to have 6 of a single card and there's no way to stop your opponent from getting a card, but you can potentially play consecutive Dragon's Eye to win. |
