The app for independent voices

This reminds me of sitting at the card table with grandpa and dad learning to play a card game called Tonk. I was 6 or 7 years old. We gambled beads until my mother found out and said we couldn't gamble. My grandmother taught me Solitaire at around 7 or 8. By 12 I was playing hearts, gin, and euchre. At 21 years old I started dealing blackjack for a living and that evolved into dealing dice and led a life-long career in casino gaming. At 62 I learned to deal and play poker. Funny how that simple game of Tonk started a love affair with cards and games that never really quit, I still play games for entertainment and socialization today.
