Card Tricks
Group
These brain teasers rely on your ability to recognize groups of common attributes. For each of these puzzles you'll need to figure out why the words or letters are grouped as they are. Sometimes you will be asked to pick the odd-one-out or to place a new word into the correct group.Group
The following groups are the values of the 13 cards in the Hearts suit. Why are they separated into groups A and B?
A: 2,3,6,8,9,10,Q
B: A,4,5,7,10,J,K
A: 2,3,6,8,9,10,Q
B: A,4,5,7,10,J,K
Answer
Group A has values that are rounded at the top. Group B has values that either have a point or a flat top.10 is in both because one of its numbers has a round top, and one a point.

This does not quite work as 10 should really be in both groups
This trick works in this font, but a 6 can be written without a curve.
I enjoyed this one, keep them coming!
Nice teaser
Many people saw the ten problem, it seems (at least two anyways) - I didn't read these comments till after I'd corrected it
Like the grouping idea though
