Historically, the Postas deck predates the Vines deck by about 40 years. You can play all the Vines games with this deck, but it was originally designed for a new family of games beginning with Prima Carta. The deck is named after another game, called Holdout but also known as Postes de Cerca.
The “Games” document below contains detailed rules for two games, Prima Carta and Holdout, as well as additional information about the history of the deck, and how to use it for all the games in Vines.
You can print your own deck using the files below, or order a high-quality printed deck (or two) from our friends at DriveThruCards.

About the Postas Games:
Prima Carta (literally, “first card”) is a traditional gambling game from the Sieran Penninsula. Players bet on which suits will finish first, as a dealer processes the deck through several passes. The game features prominently in the story Ten Cards Up.

Holdout is a strategy gambling game using the Postas deck, similar to poker but set in the world of Carrisor.

Lobo is a solitaire game with the Postas deck.
A note about the card sheets: Postas has 55 cards, which is just one more than a multiple of nine. So the Ace of Locks is found in the middle of page 1, which also serves as a cutting guide. Don’t forget to keep that card when you throw away the rest of that page!
