Cassino, sometimes spelt Casino, is 1️⃣ an English card game for two to four players using a standard, 52-card, French-suited pack.[1] It is the only fishing 1️⃣ game to have penetrated the English-speaking world.[1] It is similar to the later Italian game of Scopa and is often 1️⃣ said, without substantiation, to be of Italian origin. Cassino is still played today in Madeira, probably due to English influence.[2]
History 1️⃣ [ edit ]
Although Cassino is often claimed to be of Italian origin, detailed research by Franco Pratesi has shown that 1️⃣ there is no evidence of it ever being played in Italy and the earliest references to its Italian cousins, Scopa 1️⃣ and Scopone, post-date those of Cassino.[3] The spelling "Cassino" is used in the earliest rules of 1792 and is the 1️⃣ most persistent spelling since,[4] although German sources invariably use the spelling "Casino" along with some English sources.
Likewise an origin in 1️⃣ gambling dens appears unlikely since a casino in the late 18th century was a summer house or country villa; the 1️⃣ name was not transferred to gambling establishments until later.[5]
