The cards in each suit rank (from high to low) A K Q J 10 9 8 7 NUMBER OF STARTING CARDS The game consists of a series of hands. The first hand is played with 5 to 10 cards dealt to each player OBJECT OF THE GAME The object is for each player to bid the number of tricks he thinks he can take from each hand, then to take exactly that many; no more and no fewer. Initial bids are made sequentially and in each new round the next player in line starts to bid first. After a round is finished the next round will start with one card less. The last round starts once each player has only one card TRICK TAKING RULES In each round a trump suit is randomly selected and displayed in middle of the playing table. The suit of the first card played in each round must be played by all other players following. Players do not have to play a higher card (make the trick) of a given suit but as long as they have a card of the same suit, they have to play a card of this suit. If a player does not have a card of the same suit, the player is free to make the trick with a trump card or to just play any other card GAME SCORING Each trick made is awarded with one point. If a player makes exactly the initially called number of tricks, 10 bonus points will be added to the final score.
