Extracted from the Wikipedia article Tiến lên.
Tiến lên (Vietnamese: tiến lên, tiến: advance; lên: to go up, up; lit. 'go forward'; also romanized Tien Len) is a shedding-type card game originating in Vietnam. It may be considered Vietnam's national card game, and is common in communities where Vietnamese migration has occurred. It is also played in the United States, sometimes under the names Viet Cong, VC, Thirteen (which is also the common English name in Australia's Vietnamese migrant community), Killer, or 2’s.
