![]() According to pagat, its just one rule, either on (and applies to both melds and tricks) or off. So the players can select how to tweak the rule. Quick question though: the way you described it it seems like there are three (or even four) options for this minimum 20 rule: If the bidding team takes less than 20 points in tricks, the bid automatically fails (however much meld they had) and their bid is subtracted from their score. Each player will first be dealt 12 cards, and then the bidding phase begins. The ranks of the cards from highest to lowest are A-10-K-Q-J-9. 2 decks of standard playing cards will be used with 2's to 8's removed, resulting in 48 cards. If the bidding side fails to reach 20 in meld they automatically lose the bid without playing, but the bidder must still name a trump suit and in this case the opposing team score their meld provided that it is worth at least 20, without the requirement to take at least 20 in tricks. In this 4-player game, you and the opposite player will be teammates such that 2 partnerships are formed. Furthermore, a team that does not take at least 20 points in the play cannot score anything for the hand - their meld is disregarded. Before laying down their meld each player announces its value, and if the total for a team is less than 20, they cannot lay down or score any meld for that hand. ![]() Some play that meld can only be scored by a side whose meld is worth at least 20 points. I figure this might be just because it's pretty new. In addition, the Rules tab shows the single deck rules. Or, is it there an option I didn't see, especialy if I turn off the bots? Granted, you're targeting the social player, but still, the option needs to be there. Let the computer check your bid and play throughout the game and point out. That's rank kiddy play, IMO it means there's next to NO skill. It looks like the rules you're using don't require taking 20 to save meld. Cuz my pard gave me 20.and by my lights, if I want the bid, I'm jumping to at least 60 to cut off a meld bid.Īck.just continued the bidding, and I REALLY can't tell who's doing what. Players score points by melding various card combinations and by taking tricks. The game consists of a repeating sequence of bidding (for the right to name the trump suit and optionally to pass cards), melding, and trick-taking. The options presented are 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, and pass. Pinochle is a card game played with a 48- or 80-card deck of 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings and aces. Then, my bidding options seem horrendously limited. It doesn't last long, and there's no auction history to review. ![]() OK, I can see the bots bid.but only if I pay close attention.
