Confusion
[edit]Russian patience or Russian solitaire both refer to solitaire/patience games originating or popular in Russia, whereas Russian Patience and Russian Solitaire are specific, but quite different games of the solitaire/patience genre. Likewise there is a difference between German Patience and German patience, Australian Patience and Australian patience etc.
There are several double solitaires, but only one Double Solitaire (=Klondike).
In Hearts, the hearts are penalty cards; all fours, twenty down, skat, cego, point tarock, illustrated tarock, auction games, bête; king, spades, smear, nines, pitch, preference, last trick.
Cego and cego, Skat and skat, Culbas and culbas, Tapp and tapp, Dobbm and dobb, Binokel and binokel, Bezique, bezique.
Named from the fact that spades are always trumps, spades strikes me as having been derived from the pattern of hearts by changing a suit of four penalty cards into a suit of trumps. Parlett (2008), 27.
French Tarot is the game; French tarot is the subject area dealing with cartomancy and card games in France that employ tarot cards.
Swiss Tarot is a pack; Swiss tarot, the subject area.
German Whist is an English game, German whist may refer to the history, tactics, culture and rules of any variety of whist played in Germany.
There is difference between e.g. classic All Fours and Classic Canasta (see pagat.com); illustrated Tarock and Illustrated Tarock.
The king of hearts has five sons, the eldest being black jack, the black sheepshead of the family. He won many faint hearts, but his own fancy was la belle lucie and he used to chase the lady from his beleaguered castle to the house in the woods. There they played with a widow, a wily old maid whose preference for gin slings and rum toddies, which she hid in a rustic crib, led to many a pitched battle. This time it was costly for her as he won sixty-six gold crowns which he later deposited in the local Russian bank. Reaching home, he passed the flower garden and noticed several old spades.
- in muggins, the muggins cried muggins; the widow appeared for binokel and scored for binokel; at sniff, the sniff was sniffed at by that black lady. The wily vieux garcon always won in spades as the old maid's heart was not in it.
- Epstein The Theory of Gambling and Statistics, p. 251, has an interesting capitalised list and is not "specialised".

Expert usage:
- The sweepstake method produces a strategy of play radically different from that required with the other two (and with other Hearts games); perhaps on that account it is the most relevant. - Culbertson (1957)
- Tables games
The following would clearly be confusing in lower case: the English Game, the Irish Game, the Long Game, Royal Game of Ur.

Notes
[edit]Geoff described 2 card games today he played as a child:
- Benny. This sounds like Three Thirteen, a variant of Rummy but with the wild cards known as 'bennies'. Pagat site: [1]
- Blob. This is an English name for Oh Hell, also known in Britain as Nomination Whist, although that is also the name for a different game. Pagat site: [2]
Play called Scüs, Mond und Pagat
