7 e Mezzo (Seven and a Half) by Playtech is a traditional Italian card game that is also popular in other countries. The goal of the game is to obtain a hand value close to 7.5, without exceeding it.
The game is played with a standard deck of cards without jokers. The cards have the following values: cards from 2 to 7 are evaluated at face value, the 8 card has a value of 0, and all face cards (king, queen, and jack) are evaluated as half a point.
Players are dealt one card at a time and can choose to request additional cards to their hand or stop. The objective is to achieve a combination of cards that is as close to 7.5 as possible, without going over it. If a player exceeds 7.5, they lose the round.
In addition to the main objective, the game includes additional rules and combinations that can give additional bonuses or penalties. For example, a "sette e mezzo" (seven and a half) combination consisting of a seven and a king of the same suit is considered particularly favorable.
7 e Mezzo is a game that requires strategic thinking, the ability to make decisions based on the available cards, and the skill to control one's bets. It allows players to enjoy the excitement and engage in an entertaining card-playing experience.
