Kabufuda

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kabufuda (株札, "nine-cards") are Japanese playing cards used for gambling games such as Oicho-Kabu.

Kabufuda cards, like the related hanafuda ("flower cards") are smaller and stiffer than Western playing cards. A deck contains 40 cards, with designs representing the numbers 1 through 10. There are four cards for each number.

The object of all kabufuda games is to get a total closest to nine.
