I'm having the same problem. And I have asked several people to point out which stick they think is the black one they have all picked different ones so I'm not the only one having problems.

The black stick is the one you use to pick up other sticks, so it's not included in the pile.

Thanks Rotek. That's why the black stick does not have a points value! Long, long time since I played this game.

If you put the card code in, you can then enlarge the piture of the card which makes it much easier to tell the difference between green and blue.
(I still managed to get the answer wrong though!)

I agree with saracallie - as soon as I put the code in a saw the card online, I immediately changed my answer and got it right. Solve it using the image on the website.

By the way, the black stick is sat at the bottom of the card, underneath the score values

And yeah, the "lightbox" version of the card is a lot clearer. This isn't the only card that that's true for, actually.

Gave myself a headache looking at this card until I realized that I could use the online version... I also saved a copy and bumped up the saturation and contrast, helped immensely.

I thought the black stick was between the person's middle and ring fingers at the top of the card, and thanks for the tip to do this one on-line.

I think that's a ring on the person's hand, since it doesn't cross the pinky finger.

Yes, the on-line picture makes that obvious. My card is somewhat "cropped" at the top. The black stick is certainly at the bottom.

Once I eventually solved the "what stick is what color?" problem, I ran into glaring evidence suggesting that I'm incapable of counting.

Curses....my parents tried to get me to watch Sesame Street, but no, I said, when'll I ever need to count random objects?
