Calabresella, Calabragh,[1] sometimes spelled Calabrasella,[2] "the little Calabrian game", also known as Terziglio, is an Italian trick-taking card game variation of Tressette for three players, but it can be played by four with the dealer receiving no cards for the hand.
[6] Calabresella is played with an Italian pack, consisting of a King (Re), Knight/Cavalier (Cavallo, literally meaning Horse), and a Knave (Fante, literally meaning Footsoldier) and the pip cards 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, ace in 4 suits of Batons (Bastoni), Swords (Spade), Cups (Coppe) and Coins (Danari).
[7] The auction begins with the player at the dealer's right and proceeds counter-clockwise.
If all decline to play, the deal passes and the hands are abandoned.
The single player and the allies, respectively, collect all the tricks they win.
