The art of playing cards, in particular the game called 79.
Winkism is the tactic whereby any card scoring more than 5 is considered large, this results in a heavy loss of points each time a card is thrown. The player that adopts the winkism tactic has a well known mantra: if it's less than 5 I can stay alive, if it scores 10 I'll pass it to the men.
