Yes, you read it correct! Solitaire is the biggest card game in the world. Now, "Solitaire" is in reality a category of card games for a single player. But one can't ignore the fact that even a specific Solitaire game like The Spider, is so huge, that it alone takes a place on the top 10 list.

It's perhaps the easiest gambling card game that most people are familiar with and knows the rules for.
