DESCRIPTION
The Joffre (also called Kaiser), is a card game that is practiced with a game of 32 cards, with four players divided into two teams of two partners (North-South and East-West).
If the Joffre is often compared to the bridge, due to its two -phase progress (auction and card game), it is nevertheless that it is easier to learn to play Joffre than to bridge, in particular thanks to the Simplification, even absence, of conventions in the auction phase.
Like the bridge, it takes place in two phases:
- auctions that determine the contract to play by the team that will win the auctions;
- The card game during which the declarant team tries to achieve at least the number of points announced by the contract.
If the names Joffre and Kaiser recall the First World War, the origins of the game are still unknown. It seems that the game was introduced in Quebec during the last century.
The game is more specifically played in the Bellechasse region in the South Shore of Quebec.
