Pedro (pronounced "peedro") is an American
trick-taking card game of the
All Fours family based on Auction
Pitch. Its most popular variant is known as
Cinch,
Double Pedro or
High Five. Developed in Denver, Colorado in the 1880s, it was soon regarded as the most important member of the
All Fours family. Although it went out of fashion with the rise of
Auction Bridge, it is still widely played at the western coast of the United States and in its southern states, being the dominant game in some locations in Louisiana. Forms of the game have been reported from Nicaragua, the Azores, Italy and Finland. The game is primarily played by 4 players in fixed partnerships, but can also be played by 2–6 individual players.
