The name of this game is Block Eleven, in case you're wondering. Most descriptions I've read tell you to reject face cards from the initial layout, putting them on the bottom of the deck and replacing them with other cards. If you find no face cards in the initial layout, put the first one you turn from the deck on the bottom and take the next card instead since you need a face card as your last card to win the game.
This game is so freaking great! I saw your video almost a year ago and couldn't stop playing. It took my mind off of a breakup (Solitaire's name depressed me and it organized the cards every time) but I eventually forgot about it. I just remembered it again tonight and wanted to thank you for making this video. Also, to remind me of a few rules I forgot. Cheers!
@Frank Vigliotti Nah. If you have a drinking problem, good luck. But I'm not going to alter my language for you. I'm not a fan of "jajajaja" instead of "hahahaha" but that's just a cultural difference that I have to get accept. I also don't care for Italians or people who can't spell. Oh well. Cheers, mate!
Honestly mate, very well explained.. straight to it and no messing around. Good job.. I remembered this from a while ago and just had to look up how to play it again, and it’s as simple as that. A+
This game works most times if you initially deal 3 or more face cards. The less face cards you initially deal the harder it is to win. I think there is almost no challenge with more than two face cards dealt initially. Great game!
Thank you for posting this. I like your accent, you're very clear and I've been having fun playing this game for months. I was so happy to see you let negative comments just roll off. God bless you!
Thats a really good question. How ive been doing it is if i have to replace a face card for another card in my deck to use and it happens to be face card too, I just keep replacing it until i get a number card. It doesnt happen often though from my experience. I may have to replace the card like twice before finally getting a number card.
Thanks for teaching this. I was actually searching for a video on how to play a game called "Emperor" but ended up on your video. I was able to complete the game on the first try - nice way to pass the time. I wonder if there is a way to play with different combinations (i.e., so you have to make the cards add to 10 or 12 instead of 11?
You need to add the cards in pairs for the game to work. However, a similar game called Fifteens allows you to add more than two cards together to make 15.
what if you don't have any 2 card combinations like a 9 and a 2, but you have a 9 and two aces, does that count? or is it only 2 card combinations of 11? thanks
Do you lose when you don't have any face cards left that you could replace with other cards? I've tried to play this game a few times and it always ends up me having no cards that add up to 11 nor free face cards..
So if you run out of card combinations and the rest of the cards are on lock down, you lose? If you get all face cards in the end you win? Is this correct?
I played along with the video and won it. I thought maybe you won every time. I've played 4 more times and have not lost yet. I guess i'll keep trying to lose. :)
To add a little more option, I added a rule called a "loan" where you can decide to draw 1 card and save it. When you think you wont have any more numbers adding to 11, you can use this card and replace a non face card on the field hoping it is the card you need to help continue your combos. You can only receive the "loan" if you are able to find "*EXACTLY 2 DIFFERENT COMBINATION*" pairs that equal 11 (They cannot share the same card) (If there is cards like 7-4-4 and 8-3-3, these can count as 2 different combinations since they are 2 different number combinations) After receiving the "loan", when you are about to draw 2 cards to replace a pair of cards on the field, if one or both of those cards are face cards, you receive -1 penalty. This is only on the turn after you received the loan. If you receive -2 penalty throughout the game, you lose. You can use your loaned card anytime and cannot be forced to use it. You can only have 1 loaned card per loan. You can receive the "loan" many times if possible. Rare case: When having a loan, it may make cards uneven, so if you are about to win, and you have 1 final face card in your deck, you win. It does help only a very little percentage on success but it's fun to think you might have a trump card to help you in those tight situations.
They do not count as anything, because as soon as you draw them onto a pile that pile is locked from play. If you get one in the beginning, you are allowed to pick it up and replace it for a number card off the top of the deck. Hope this helps

I know you wrote this 4 years ago.. but do you have to go through the whole deck to win?

@@emilyjadeeex yes, if you can't add any any 2 cards to 11 and don't have any face cards dealt at the beginning to remove, you lose

QUESTION: WHAT IF YOU USE YOUR SINGLE FACE CARD AND U PLACE DOWN ANOTHER FACE CARD... ARE YOU ALLOWED TO USE IT OR IS IT LOCKED
Thats a really good question. How ive been doing it is if i have to replace a face card for another card in my deck to use and it happens to be face card too, I just keep replacing it until i get a number card. It doesnt happen often though from my experience. I may have to replace the card like twice before finally getting a number card.
What if the first card i pull cant add up with any other card?
What about the joker do we need to throw it out or it has a use?
Thanks for teaching this. I was actually searching for a video on how to play a game called "Emperor" but ended up on your video. I was able to complete the game on the first try - nice way to pass the time. I wonder if there is a way to play with different combinations (i.e., so you have to make the cards add to 10 or 12 instead of 11?
yooooo no way i was trying to learn emperor too
I played this game step by step and it worked I was impressed
Thank you! First time playing. Thanks for showing me how! ❤
Sum 11 can be formed from any number of cards or only two cards should sum up to 11?
Woah this game looks fun!
omg I love this! I actually got it for the first time :D I played along while watching your video. It's fun indeed.
Angrej ka gaad ban raha hindi me v bata sakta tha ...
Could I add more than 2 cards? For example I have a 9 a Ace and a Ace could I make those 3 or does it have to be by 2?
You need to add the cards in pairs for the game to work. However, a similar game called Fifteens allows you to add more than two cards together to make 15.
It is fun and easy, even my 92 year old cousin likes to play it.! Thank you
What should we do if All face cards are locked and there is no chance of sum of 11
start over
Played your game for the first time after watching your tutorial and I won on the first try!!!!
I lost the first time, and then I'm like "this is so addicting!" so I try again and lost again :(
I'll try again! :D
You wholesome asf bro how are you doing today
thanks this was very helpful! Love your accent!!
Lol I won the game while learning- it was fun, thanks for teaching me a new solo game so I wont play JUST solitaire, pyramid and clock all the time
Great game. I haven’t won yet. You made it look easy lol
Thank you so much for sharing this game!!! 💙
This is so amazing thanks !!! It’s now my new favorite game
Good playing card you perfect☺😎👍
Dillan Ram what is the name of this game? Just wanted to know thank you Jason Benton
Jittery camera. Thanx, I need a Tylenol 😩
Awesome game! I've never heard of this game before. What is the name of it? Where did you learn it, if I may ask?
It's called Block Eleven.
I just tried this game and completed it on the first try! Love it!
I have one doubt:
If we have more than 2 cards that makes up 11(eg Suppose, I have 5, 4 and 2), then can I add those 3 cards to make up 11?
No, you must only add 2
Who else watching this on quarantine
Thank you for not making me bored anymore😊
what if you don't have any 2 card combinations like a 9 and a 2, but you have a 9 and two aces, does that count? or is it only 2 card combinations of 11? thanks
I'm pretty sure u can only have 2 cards to make eleven.
+Morgan Joe just 2 cards
💀 loneliness be hitting different
fun game! not sure there's any strategy but it's a neat feeling when you win.
thanks for the vid! you explained it very clearly.
There's no strategy to this game whatsoever, but it's definitely still interesting. For kids, it's a good way to practise addition.
Awesome game......I was actually playing poker by myself before
if i get stuck with all locked faced cards, is the game over?
Now I finally understand but the thing is I haate math but I’m bored. Thx
Do you lose when you don't have any face cards left that you could replace with other cards? I've tried to play this game a few times and it always ends up me having no cards that add up to 11 nor free face cards..
yea
this game should be called royalty because at the end of the game, all the kings queens and jacks will be on the top
Do I have to add only two cards to get 11? Can I add for example 5, 2, and 4?
you can only add a max of two card at a time.
So if you run out of card combinations and the rest of the cards are on lock down, you lose? If you get all face cards in the end you win? Is this correct?
Yes that is correct
at 5:30 does the 5, 5 and ace count as 11 ?...
peter p No, it's only 2 cards that you can use to add up to 11. Look at Ayush Chhabra's comment, I tried it, and you are guaranteed to win.👍🏼👍🏼
I JUST PLAYED THE GAME RIGHT AFTER WATCHING IT AND WON IN THE SECOND TRIAL ITSLELF! I FEEL SUPER PROUD OF MYSELF!
Thanks for this game bro. I was getting really bored playing Solitaire all the time. 😂
I think the game should be called 11 because you have to add up the cards to make 11.
Its actual name is Block Eleven.
Thanks this video helped so much!
Can you add 3 cards together to get 11?
Thanks for this lovely game. All my friends love playing it
Love this game! Thank you! 😍
I'm trying it now. Looks good. I've just been looking for card games to play by myself
I personally call it The supreme court solitaire 😊 thanks for sharing bro.
Thank you for teaching me a new game. I'm trying this today...
Hey thank you. I love learning new games. And First try, I won! Thank so much
I played along with the video and won it. I thought maybe you won every time. I've played 4 more times and have not lost yet. I guess i'll keep trying to lose. :)
Is there a name to this game? I enjoyed...thanks for sharing!!

Just played along and got it on the first try. Now I’m determined to make it not work.
Thanks so much! i love it it is good to play when i don't have any homework and i am grounded.
Thank you man!! I have been looking for a nice game to play alone!
Don't forget to "suffle" the cards! 😂
he did say he was holding a camera

I did not get it first time. Trying again now. Thanks!

Brenda Flores I call it Face Time

It's Emperor

It’s Emperor, but names like 11 or lockdown make more sense lol
Awesome, you can still loose at this game but...... Chances of winning are higher then regular solitare/ Klondike thank you sir for a awesome game.
What does the ace, king, queen and jack count as?
They do not count as anything, because as soon as you draw them onto a pile that pile is locked from play. If you get one in the beginning, you are allowed to pick it up and replace it for a number card off the top of the deck. Hope this helps
I think I’m doing something wrong bc it never finishes for me
2020 people where you at?
Just played my first game and it was great fun thank you. Lets play Poker sometime, i bet you qill win PEACE
