History of Skat the old dispute over playing cards with a compromise using a new French pack with German suits. The conflict between the German Skat Association and ISPA was also resolved amicably in 1998. Both players' associations adopted the "International Skat Regulations". Hand games have been penalised twice since then and the basic value of the Grand Ouvert has been set at 24. In addition, the players' associations formed the International Skat Court jointly in 2001, whose seat is in Altenburg. In 2005, the office of the German Skat Association in Bielefeld was closed and moved to its historical headquarters in Altenburg
