Does anyone still play pinochle?

I learned the game from John Scarne many years ago. I taught the game to some of my university friends and we would rotate it into our regular card games (usually 120's, aka 45's, I think). I haven't played since about 1988. One of the things I really liked about pinochle was how the 2-, 3-, and 4-handed games could be so different.

I play pinochle. Used to play 8 handed with 3 decks when Grandparents were still with us. Now usually 4 handed. Everyone in my extended family knows how to play.

And like.. nobody else lol

Never heard of Pinochle until I was in Chicago with my wife the other year and we grabbed a pack of cards to play rummy. Got back to the hotel and looked at the deck and realized it was a Pinochle deck. We returned it.

I've played with my family, but pretty much always with four people.
