It is also related to the simpler 'slap' card games often called Snap.Ī 52-card deck is divided into face-down stacks as equally as possible between all players. The game is a cross between Beggar-My-Neighbour and Egyptian Ratscrew and is also sometimes known as Heart Attack. It can often be a child's first introduction to playing cards. Slapjack, also known as Slaps, is a card game of the matching family, generally played among children. Players slap the pile when a jack is played
