HOW TO PLAY
1

Partners sit across from each other, and one player names a suit as trump after examining their dealt hand.

2

Deal the full hand to each player, then play proceeds clockwise with each player contributing one card to the trick.

3

Follow the suit that was led if you can, and play a trump card if you are unable to follow suit.

4

Certain card combinations held before the first trick, such as runs or matched pairs, are declared aloud for bonus points.

5

The highest trump played, or the highest card of the led suit if no trump was played, wins the trick for that team.

6

Add up trick points and declared combinations at the end of the hand; the first team to reach the agreed target score across multiple hands wins.
