Bid Euchre Game
Bid Euchre, is the name given to a group of card games played in North America based on the game Euchre. It introduces an element of bidding in which the trump suit.
GAMEPLAY(Be familiar with the rules of standard Euchre before playing) The game is played with 2 euchre decks(8 each 9,10,J,Q,K,A) Each player is dealt 12 cards. The player to the left of the dealer may bid on how many tricks he thinks he and his partner will win(minimum 6, maximum 12) or he may pass to the next player, that player may bid higher or pass(If it is passed to the dealer without any bids, the dealer must bid. The player who bid the highest calls a trump, low-no(lowest card wins), or high-no(highest card wins)He may also choose to go alone(play without his partner). The game continues just like regular Euchre but when 2 players play the same card the player who played it first wins. SCORING The game is played to 50 points The number of points you gain is equal to the number of tricks you took If you called it and made your bid you get 2 extra points If you are Euchred(you call it and lose), you lose points equal to your bid If you go alone and take all tricks you get 25 points, if you don't get them all, you lose 25 points. We play an informational bid system below a bid of 6.
1 thru 4 is the number of aces you hold. 5 means you have at least 1 ace, 1 nine, and 1 jack of each color.
This does help your partner (and opponents) know more of what to bid. We also play to 52 and don't give bonus points for making your bid, you only get points equals to the number of tricks you took. I rated regular 5 card Euchre a 6, but I would give this game an 8.
