I just noticed something about the Club, Hearts, Spades and Diamonds suit order that is used in many different deck stacks. Since stacks are cyclic, this order of suits is equivalent to Diamonds, Clubs, Hearts and Spades. Which is a numerical progression order if you look at the “points” of the pips of the suit. Diamonds has four points, Clubs has three, Hearts has two, and Spades has one. So instead of looking at a suit and using the mnemonic CHaSeD to figure out the next suit, you can simply look at the “points” and subtract one. Thus a Heart (two points) is followed by a Spade (one point). Diamonds (four points) is followed by a Club (three points). <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
