Ep 024 | A Unique Sequence of Cards


Listen Later

Every time you shuffle a deck of cards you are creating a unique sequence of cards that has never been seen before in history, statistically. There are more card combinations than stars in the Universe. Don't believe us? It was on an episode of QI so it must be real.

We welcome a new guest to the Board Game Gateway Podcast this week with Ralph's Cousin Anthony (yes another one) to the studio. We have invited him here to introduce us (and you the listener) to an old but FANTASTIC card game called Briscola. We also ask him for some stories about him and Ralph and how they were taught the games they play as well as the memories they have from their past.

Oh, we also welcome back Matt. You know this one is going to be all over the shop so strap in!
