Whist
Whist (a trick-taking game) is a classic game which was played widely in the 18th and 19th centuries. It was derived from the older game Ruff and Honours, and in the twentieth century, Bridge has displaced whist as the most popular card game internationally among serious card players. Nevertheless, whist continues to be played in Britain, often in local tournaments called "whist drives".
