Description

This game is strongly related to Knaves. It is played with a standard deck of cards after removing all the cards with value less than 7. Taking the Jacks worth one or two penalty points, the game continues until a player reaches an agreed total of penalties. There are some possibilities to change the whole structure of the game, for example any player may bid "capot" before the opening lead is made. This is an undertaking to win every trick. If succeeded, each opponent loses 5 points, if not the bidder loses 5.
