We need to expand the Envido section!!! --Neigel von Teighen 16:44, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
What about the Brazilian version of Truco, which is tooooo popular and so different from argentinian one? I can explain how truco works in Brazil, and someone who dominates English could write it, in order to expand this article. Just email me, gabrielquinteiro@gmail.com
- You can just post the information here. You can use Portuguese, as I am fluent in both languages. --Sn0wflake 00:52, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
- Just have in mind that Argentine Truco (to my inderstanding) is far more popular than the Brazilian one, and an Icon of the Argentine Culture. (google hits 1,000,000 v 57,000 ) Mariano(t/c) 08:31, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
- And why does that stop us from creating two separete sections on the same article? --Sn0wflake 16:05, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
- I just created a subsection on brazilian truco. Make any changes if you deem necessary.

- Absolutelly nothing. I just said we should have it in mind, specially if we are to create 2 separate articles. Mariano(t/c) 08:05, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Interwiki
I changed the es: link to es:Truco (juego de naipes) which I hope is appropriate. (Presently it is just a stub that directs the user to es:Truc) The contents of the es:Truco (Argentina) page were apparently found to be a copyright infringement. - Kymacpherson 18:45, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
Bold textThe brazilian version has differnt card rankings and only played in 4's
"Truco" is actually a name for two different card games: the argentinean version and the brazilian version. They both have the same name, but they are distinct games. So it would be nice having two articles, with a disambiguation page.
Truco is a popular trick-taking card game played in the Río de la Plata area.
Is it played just in the Río de la plata area?, in all country you can play truco!. --Vokoder 21:03, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
- You can play it everywhere, but it is originally from Río de la Plata area. --Neigel von Teighen 09:37, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

- According to the es:Wikipedia, Truco was originated in Valencia and Balearic Islands but is very popular in South America (specially: Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Brazil). --Vokoder 02:34, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- No, Truco is an elaborated version of Truc. You're right when saying that Truc is valencian (also catalonian), but Truco is orginally from Río de la Plata. For more information, look at: here for Truco and here for Truc (also called Truque). Yours, --Neigel von Teighen 10:38, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- I thought that Truco was a version of the Spanish Truc played in South America, but it's originally from Rio de la Plata area and uses Spanish cards also!. It would have to use Argentine cards!
- I don't understand jajaja. --Vokoder 20:34, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

- I added some details about the game. I also corrected some things that were, in my experience, wrong. However, since the game is mostly taught by oral tradition, it is possible that there are many subsets of rules. Since these corrections are drawn from my experience, I could not quote any text where that information can be found. I hope that is okay. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Canonicus (talk • contribs) 23:33, 26 April 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Spanish Deck?
The article says that the game uses a Spanish deck, from which the 8's and 9's have been removed. I didn't realize a Spanish deck HAD 8's and 9's to remove. ;) Should that be changed? Vince In Milan 23:28, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- My "Vitoria" deck has 8's and 9's , but it is surely a modern version. I haven't ever seen another deck like mine in my life... I would wait a bit if someone comes around with a different opinion and, if not, change it. --Neigel von Teighen | help with arbs? 10:10, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
