Edmond Hoyle è stato uno scrittore noto per le sue opere sulle regole e sul gioco delle carte. I suoi scritti furono considerati autorevoli, portando all'introduzione della frase "secondo Hoyle" nella lingua, a significare un appello a una presunta autorità. Hoyle si concentrò sulla chiara spiegazione di complesse strategie e tattiche di gioco, diventando una figura fondamentale nella codificazione dei giochi di carte.
