Court Piece is sometimes written as Coat Piece or Coat Pees, Pees being a Hindi word meaning to deal.this game is often known as Rang or Rung, which means trump. In some places, for example in Goa, it is called Seven Hands: in India the English word "hand" is sometimes used to mean a "trick". one card played to the table by each player in turn, these cards being won by the player of the highest card.
