What do you call the activity of playing a card game with baseball or collectabe cards to win some of them?

I'm asking because I'm an English language teacher working in Bangkok and one of my students wanted to know. As I'm British, I have no idea what the answer could be and hope someone from the US reads this.

What do you call the activity of playing a card game with baseball or collectabe cards to win some of them?
There are a couple of different games, called flipping cards and tossing cards.





Flipping cards is for two players. The first player throws a card in the air and lets it fall to the floor. If it lands with the picture side up, it's "heads" and if it lands with the back side up, it's "tails". Then the second player does the same with one of his cards. If the second player matches the first player with a heads or tails, the second player wins both cards. If he does not, the first player wins both cards.





Tossing cards can be for any number of people. First, the players decide how many cards will be tossed. Then, a line is marked on the floor, and the players take turns throwing the cards at the wall while standing behind that line. The player who tosses the card that is closest to the wall or is touching the wall wins all the cards.

I dont know how to play, but thats the name I've heard before. I've also heard that it ruins the card when you do it [thus making it non-collectible]
