"younger hand"の定義と意味

Who is the "younger hand"?

The younger hand can refer to the player who is playing second, or in some cases, to the player who has the lesser position or disadvantage in the game. In games like Piquet, the younger hand refers to the player who is dealt the second set of cards, and this player typically plays after the first player, known as the elder hand. The younger hand may have a strategic disadvantage, as they have less control over the flow of the game, but this can vary depending on the specific rules of the card game being played.
