Of the four suits that make up a deck of cards, only the diamonds are symmetrical, in that a diamond - unlike a club, a heart or a spade looks the same whether it is rightside-up or updside-down.
However, one of the 13 diamond cards is different when you turn it upside-down. Without checking any deck of cards you may have lying around, can you name that one non-symmetrical diamond?

Hint: There are never more than three diamonds in a row across the card, although there can be more than that up and down.
ReplyDeleteExcuse me, I meant there are never three diamonds in a row.
ReplyDeleteSo take out 'never more than three diamonds' and replace it with 'never three diamonds in a row' in the hint above.
Sorry!
the 7 of diamonds usually has the 7th diamond on one end of the card or the other
ReplyDeleteThat's right. It's the seven of diamonds.
