Card games in Samoa

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

I am told that the national card game of Samoa is Suipi, which is a version of Casino. The 10 of diamonds is called "kasiga" - pronounced "kah-singa" - which most likely comes from "casino", and the name of the game is from "sweep" - the cation of capturing all the cards from the layout.
