Yeah.
First of all, we go to double nine rather than what most play, double six.
That creates more complexity in the game.
To play it well, you need to be sort of a "card counter" to know what is on the table, what remains to be played and the odds of what the other person may have.
With double nine, that is that much tougher to do.

Next, lots of trash talk.

Next, we play two ways. Individual "guerra", each man for themselves or we play partners with the person across from you.

Either way, lots of trash talk.
