About the game
Put, occasionally Putt, is an English tavern game first recorded in the 16th century and later castigated by 17th century moralists as one of ill repute. It belongs to a very ancient family of trick-taking card games and bears close similarities a group known as Truc, Trut, Truque, also Tru, and the South American game Truco. Its more elaborate cousin is the Spanish game of Truc, which is still much played in many parts of Southern France and Spain.Information from Marquoir’s game database, which cross-checks several open sources.
