Default Can someone explain the points system?

Advertisement
I don't understand the points system.

(e.g.
What is

Ace = 4
King = 3
Queen = 2
Jack = 1
)

Can someone explain its importance?

this is currently not implemented yet. i try to explain a bit. in real life, each player's must have a total of 4 points or more. how to calculate the points then?

quoted from wikipedia:lol:

"For some groups of players, bidding will only commence if every player has a sufficiently "playable" hand to make the game meaningful.

Hands are determined to be playable through a point system. Aces of any suits in a hand are assigned 4 points each, Kings 3 points, Queens 2 points, Jacks 1 point, and the combination of 5 cards or more of a particular suit in a hand is also assigned 1 point.

For bidding to begin, each player must have at least 4 points (by meeting the criteria of the above point system) in order to have a playable hand.

If someone does not have a "playable" hand, the cards will be reshuffled for a new round. The reshuffling is known as a 'wash'." "

basically, a 'wash' is done when someone got not enough points cause if he got not enough points, very difficult for him and his partner to win:lol

Hi Guys!,

This point system has been implemented. You will definitely get a hand with enough points, so no worries!

Just to correct a bit about the pts. 5 same suit card add 1 pt, 6 add 2pts n so on. Not 5 or more add one pt.

Actually, if a player has less than 4 pts (3,2,1,0), it is reshuffling time.

it is to be fair for all players and also to make the game meaningful.

else if 1 player gets all the small cards, imagine how suay his partner will be?

therefore points are used to calculate if all the players have enough good cards to make the game more meaningful.

If not enough points, cards will be washed/reshuffled. Understand?
