Calabresella, Calabragh,[1] sometimes spelt Calabrasella,[2] "the little Calabrian game", also known as Terziglio, is an Italian trick-taking card game variation of Tressette for three players, but it can be played by four with the dealer receiving no cards for the hand.[3] One of the earliest references of the game dates from 1822.[4]
