ABSTRACT:
The disclosed game provides three decks of playing cards, two decks being identical and each of these two containing cards bearing indicia representative of typical tennis strokes; these decks are "playing" decks and one deck is in possession of each of two players or two teams. The third deck is a "serving" deck and contains cards bearing indicia representative of service conditions; e.g., good, bad, ace, etc. Certain cards may also be designated as "free" cards, capable of being played at the holder's wish. The game is played by one player drawing a serving card and playing it face up on the table. The other player selects a card from a group of eight drawn initially from his "playing " deck and plays it face up. The first player selects from his hand a card that will be a response to the played card and the volley continues. Each time a card is played, that player draws a replacement card from his playing deck.
