The first recorded document of card game was found in the Collection of Miscellanea at Duyang by Su E who was a Tang dynasty writer.
Playing card games were first invented in China by Tang dynasty during the ninth century. Ace is the only card that can be used as a face card or number card, or both, according to the needs of the game. Each suit consists of 13 numbers of cards which are divided into two main categories which are Face cards like King, Queen and Joker, and the number cards from 2 to 10. Four suits are there in normal decks which are Spades, Hearts, Clubs and Diamonds. A card game is a game that can be played by one or more number of card sets called Decks which consists of 52 numbers of cards.
