Frog (American card game)

Frog is a trick-taking, card game for 3 players that is or was popular in southern USA and Mexico (where it is known as Rana). It is a member of the German Tarok group of games that originate from an attempt to play the tarot card game of Grosstarock with non-tarot cards.
