I have never heard of this game, is it similar to any other?

Help Petra! Tony I had never heard of Skat either until I visited Altenburg but I think that Petra will have a better idea than me,I only know it is a 3 player game and I brought a set of cards back as a souvenir but I haven't looked at them yet.

Fred, Tony, I am very sorry - I don't play Skat. Maybe wikipedia can help: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skat_(card_game).
