short whist
Short Whist is a type of card game, which is a simplified version of the classic game Whist. It is generally played by four players in two partnerships with a standard deck of cards. The main objective of the game is to take as many tricks as possible. The game is called 'short' because it is played to five points, rather than the nine points in long whist. Its rules are also more simplified than those of long whist.
