Definition & Bedeutung von "Yaniv"

What is "Yaniv"?

Yaniv is a card game commonly played by two or more players using a standard 52-card deck. The goal is to have the lowest total value of cards in hand by the end of the game. In each round, players take turns drawing and discarding cards, aiming to reduce the value of their hand. Players can call "Yaniv" when they believe their hand’s total value is 5 or lower, which ends the round. Other players then reveal their cards, and if no one has a lower total, the player who called "Yaniv" wins the round. However, if another player has a lower total, the player who called "Yaniv" must draw an additional penalty card. The game continues until a player reaches a set number of points, and the player with the lowest total score wins. Yaniv is a game of strategy, decision-making, and risk management.
