This double deck of Beer Trivia Playing Cards will provide insights into the history of beer and test your knowledge of beer trivia.
Among the cards is the fact that the introduction of Indian Pale Ale in the late 18th century was in response to the long ocean journey to India. To stabilize the beer and avoid spoilage more hops were added and the alcohol content was increased. The antiseptic properties of alcohol assured Indian expatriates their ale.
Also, in 1722, Ralph Harwood of the Bell Brewhouse, produced ale that was named Porter in honor of its main customers - all the porters who carried goods throughout London. The unique taste was derived from blending stale or sour ale, brown ale and weak ale.
So the next time you have your guests over for a couple of cold ones pop open our double deck of Beer Trivia Playing Cards and let the suds flow and the fun begin.
Poker - a game of chance or a game of skill? Chance, because of the random dealing of playing cards; skill as players have to make informed decisions based on the risk-reward nature of the game and the general probabilities presented with each hand.
Among the more interesting tips and trivia contained in our Poker Tips & Trivia Playing Cards are the following:
When players are placing their bets watch which chips they use. Using small denomination chips for the same size bet usually denotes weakness or a bluff while using larger denomination chips often subconsciously indicates confidence and strength. If you are betting using a black chip to bet $100 it looks like a smaller wager than a bet of $90 using three green chips and three red chips even though it's $10 more. If your opponent is inexperienced you can put more chips in the pot when you would like him to fold and the greater number of chips in the pot is more intimidating than only one and conversely if you are looking for action, bet with fewer chips.
Alice Ivers, better known as "Poker Alice", moved to Colorado from England in 1860 and eventually married a mine who played cards.
