Deal the entire deck evenly among all players.

Whoever holds the three of spades leads the first trick by playing it alone or in a valid combination such as a pair, straight, or set.

Each following player must play a stronger combination of the same type and size, or pass if unable to.

4

When every other player passes, the last one to play starts a new trick with any combination.

Special combinations, like four of a kind or three consecutive pairs, can beat certain single high cards played out of turn.

6

The first player to empty their hand of all cards wins the round.
