Hello People,

I am from germany and we have invented a card game.
Tomorrow the guy who does the design of the board/table is gonna come.

I want it to say 3 things and don't know about the best phrasing (or any)
please help me.

What I want to say is:
3 x same colour
3 x same picture (I got that, three of a kind)
3 x ace of hearts

how would you phrase these things on the table?

Thank you

how many cards do you get? any 3 of the same color, do you mean any red or black? or do you mean flush?

Hi Axel,

how would you say it for red or black and how for a three card flush?

and how would you say the ace of hearts?

tripple ace of hearts? ii dont like the look of that.. and it doesnt suite well with the three cof a kind either :(

how about:

THREE OF A KIND
THREE CARD FLUSH
THREE ACE OF HEARTS

?
or ACES OF HEARTS (which 1 is right?)

(haha thx 4 editing the title, in german we just put nouns together to make more complicated words :D)

I don't know how the game works or how many cards you get total. If you end your hand with cards only, there would be no reason for you to include the word THREE when explaining a flush.

You should look at other games and see of the use the word three or the number 3

you can say 3 of kind J,Q,K or 3 of a kind face cards
You could say 3 matching colors. or 3 black cards, 3 red cards

I think if you want to use the word matching, then you would use it in all examples it applies to.

3 SUITED ACE'S IN HEARTS
