Hi Josh.

About colours, hearts and diamonds are red, spades and clubs are black, this only tends to matter in a couple of games though like euchre and clondike solitare, usually in most games you can just take the four suits just as divisions.

Also, the card order can vary, sinse in some games the ace counts as 1 and goes before the 2, in others it counts as eleven and goes after the ten, and in still others it counts higher than the king, it all depends upon the rules of the game.

Amusingly enough, this is why in Tim Powers' post neuclear appocalypse novel Dinner at devients palace, he imagines the rulers of a future Los angeles calling themselves "aces" on the basis that they can't be either kings or jokers :D.

Beware the grue!

Dark.

But what colors are what? what colors is hearts diamonds spades and clubs? Or are hearts diamonds spades and clubs all different colors because they are each different suits?
