Card games in Albania

This page is part of the National and Regional Card Games Index of the Card Games Web Site.

In The Playing-Card, volume XXVI, No 3, Franco Pratesi has described three Albanian card games, all played with the standard 52 card French suited pack:

• Pesë Kate - a reverse trick taking game of the compendium type, in four deals, like a simple version of King or Barbu.
• Zing - a fishing game, somewhat related to the Turkish game Pishti.
• Murla - a climbing game, perhaps related to President or Big Two. Requires red and black jokers.
