A set of 36 cards

GAME SEQUENCE:

The players form two teams of two. The dealer distributes 9 cards to each, three by three. The player who has the 7 of diamonds is the one who chooses the trump, during the first deal and starts the game. For the other deals, it will be the player to the right of the dealer who will choose. The partners of the same team can both announce the trump.

The player who has the lead then plays his first card, the one to his right will do the same and so on. Be careful, players must play a card of the same suit as the one who has the lead. He announces that he cannot follow if he doesn't have one and plays a different card. A player can trump, in other words play a card of the trump suit when the player who had the lead had started with another suit.

But if a player has already trumped, he is not allowed to undertrump, that is to say play a trump of lower value than the one previously played, unless he has no other cards.

A player who has the trump jack is not obliged to play it, even if the base suit of the trick is that of trump and it is the only card of that suit remaining in his hand. The player who played either the highest trump wins the trick for his team.

He collects it and the points that constitute it are immediately attributed to the team. He takes the lead and plays the first card of the next trick. When players have no more cards, the round ends. The team winning the last trick gets 5 additional points (Last five). The player to the right of the current dealer becomes the new dealer for the next round.

At the end of each round, teams mark their number of points, in a very particular way.

Point counting in Jass

The record is divided into two parts, one for each team. Points are written on 3 lines, as follows: the top line is composed of ticks each worth 100 points, the middle one

composed of crosses, a half-cross worth 50 points and a whole cross 100 points, then the bottom line which is composed of ticks of 20 points. Units are noted on the right by adding or subtracting them. It is easier to record points after each announcement than at the end of the round. Players thus add their points as they go.

THE WINNER IS:

The game ends when a team has scored 1,000 points. Be careful if teammates announce 1,000 points, but they were wrong, their opponent wins the game.
