"Sixty-Six (or 66) is a fast-paced, 2-player trick-and-draw card game played with 24 cards (Aces down to 9s). The objective is to be the first to reach 66 points by winning tricks and declaring "marriages" (King and Queen pairs).
The Basics:
The Deck: 24 cards, stripped from a standard deck: A, 10, K, Q, J, 9.Card Values: Aces (11 points), 10s (10), Kings (4), Queens (3), Jacks (2), and 9s (0).Setup:
Each player is dealt 6 cards. The remaining deck is placed face-down, with the very bottom card flipped face-up. This face-up card establishes the trump suit.
How to play: The Lead: The non-dealer leads the first trick.
Trick Rules (Phase 1): In the early game, players do not have to follow suit or even play a trump card. The highest card of the led suit—or the highest trump card played—wins the trick.
Drawing: The winner of the trick draws the top card from the deck, followed by the loser.
Trump Exchange: If you hold the 9 of trumps, you can swap it for the face-up trump card as long as you've won at least one trick."

It's similar to pinochle, but with half a deck and only two players.
Euchre uses 9-ace with jacks being the highest cards if spade is trumps then jack of spade is
high card with jack of club being next.
