Edmond Hoyle (1672 – 29 August 1769)[2] was an English writer best known for his works on the rules and play of card games. The phrase "according to Hoyle" (meaning "strictly according to the rules") came into the language as a reflection of his broadly perceived authority on the subject;[2] use of the phrase has since expanded to any appeal to a putative authority.
