OVERVIEW OF PASTON

Paston is a trick-taking card game for 3 players. The goal of the game is to reach 121 points before your opponents.

SETUP

The deck is modified to be 32 cards. The included cards are ranked Ace (high), King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, and 7 (low).

A dealer is chosen at random and shuffles the deck. The player to their right will cut, and the dealer looks at the bottom of the deck. If the bottom card is the 7 of spades the deck is reshuffled and cut again.

The dealer then deals each player a hand of 10 cards, 2 cards at a time. After the first round of 2 cards are dealt to each player, the dealer deals two cards face down in the center of the table. This is called the prikup and is used later.

If a player holds all of the spades 7 through Queen but does not have the King or Ace of the suit, then a redeal is called for.

For the first round of bidding the first bidder is the player holding the Jack of spades. If the jack of spades is in the prikup then the holder of the 7 of spades becomes the first bidder. For the second round this player becomes the new dealer, and from then on the first dealer is the player to the left of the dealer, who becomes the next dealer in the next round. this continues around the table clockwise.

Bidding

The bidding is held to find the rounds declarer. The declarer must win 6 out of the 10 tricks for the round and gets to call the trump suit.

On a player’s turn, they can either pass or call a trump suit. The suits are ranked Paston (aka spades) (low), Glitch (aka clubs), Dineri (aka diamonds), Gupa (aka hearts), and Paston Grkha (aka best Spades) (high). To call a suit you must go in order from lowest to highest rank. So, the bid must begin with paston, and each new bid increases the rank of the suit. The bid ends if a player bids Paston Grkha and that player is the declarer. The bid also ends when 2 other players have passed and a bid has been made by the third.

Once a player passes, they are no longer in the bidding round. If all players pass the declarer is the player holding the Jack of spades, or the 7 of spades if the jack is not present.

Contracts To Play

The declarer then takes the prikup and discards any two cards from their hand face down on the table. They may then declare the trump suit, which must be either the suit they bid or a higher-ranking suit. Paston Grkha cannot be called if it was not bid and may be the only suit declared if it was bid.

Instead of declaring a trump suit, the declarer may also choose to surrender, choosing to take the penalty instead of playing through the round. 메이저놀이터추천

If the declarer does choose to play, the other two players may choose to play the round by calling whist or pass and be out of the round of play. If both players call whist, they each need to win 2 tricks, to avoid penalty. If only one player calls whist, they must win 4. If both players pass, then the declarer wins the round and scores without playing.

GAMEPLAY

After bidding and contracts, the gameplay can begin, the declarer leads the first trick.

The lead card can be of any suit of the player’s choosing. All following players must follow suit if able, and if they cannot, must then play a trump. If no trumps are available, they may play any card.
