Yaniv, also known as yaniff is an Israeli card game, especially popular among travelers. Many legends are told about this game. One of them is that the game''s origin is attributed to two Israeli travelers by the name of Yaniv and Assaf, hence the names called during the game. There is no record for this claim. The other story is told about an Israeli soldier named Yaniv Benbenishti invented the game while spending time in the Israeli army jail. The game has traveled all the way to Fiji, where it has been played by groups as large as 16 players in the Yasawa Islands. In Fiji, the name Yaniv was replaced by Fiji, confusing even the most avid of players. Reports from the Marshall Islands suggest that Yaniv is called just Marshall, or Matityahu by Israelis playing in the Marshall Islands. The game is rapidly gaining popularity in North America, where the name is generally spelled "Yanif", and in Europe is mainly known as the Israeli traveling card game. There is an alternative version of the game played in Manchester known as Dalya. Little is known about this variation of the game.
