In ____, a hand with no court cards is "carte blanche” (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

piquet

(Other definitions for piquet that I've seen before include "Card game with 32 cards" , "Card game for two" , "Racing driver" , "Card-game with 32 cards" , "patrol" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
