Judgement is played in many parts of the world under different names and slight variations! It first appeared in London and New York in the 1930s with the original name of "Oh Hell!". The original name offended some people and has been bowdlerized in many books to "Oh Pshaw!" or "Oh Well!". Some call it "Blob" or "Blackout", perhaps because of the practice of recording a players bid on the scoreboard and then obliterating it with a black blob if the player failed to win correct number of hands. The game is known as "lAscenseur" in France, "Up and Down the River" or "Bust" in Australia and New Zealand, "10 op en need" or "Boerenbridge" in the Netherlands, "Nomination Whist" in the UK, and "German Bridge" in Hong Kong. The game is extremely popular as "Judgement" in India.
