Pitch

2 a 7 jogadores (4 em parcerias é o mais comum)

1. Gather Players: Assemble a group of at least three players, although four players are ideal. The dealer shuffles the deck and deals six cards to each player in sequential order.
2. Evaluate Your Cards: Examine the cards you've been dealt, considering their point values: Ten = 10 points, Ace = 4 points, King = 3 points, Queen = 2 points, Jack = 1 point.
3. Make Bids: Starting with the player to the left of the dealer and proceeding clockwise, each player must make a bid representing their confidence in their hand. Bids can range from 2 to 4, corresponding to the number of points the player anticipates winning.
4. Match Bids: Players must match, exceed, or pass the bids made by preceding players. The highest bidder gets to choose the trump suit for the round.
5. Understand Trump: Points are awarded for achievements related to the trump suit: High of Trump (highest-ranked trump card played), Low of Trump (lowest-ranked trump card played), Jack of Trump (the jack of the trump suit), and Game (points earned based on face cards obtained). The trump suit is determined by the highest bidder, who plays the first card.

1. Determine Highest Trump: The highest bidder throws down the first card, which establishes the trump suit for the round.
2. Play Cards: Play proceeds clockwise, with each player throwing down one card per turn. The winner of each hand is determined by the highest card played in the lead suit or the highest trump card.
3. Complete Rounds: Players continue playing until all cards are exhausted from their hands. The winner of each round collects the cards they've won.
4. Assigning Points: The highest bidder receives the points they bid if they fulfill it; otherwise, they receive negative points equal to their bid. Other players score without penalty. Points are awarded: 1 point for winning the trick with the highest trump, 1 point for the lowest trump, 1 point for the jack of trump, and 1 point for the most game points (calculated using card values: Ten = 10, Ace = 4, King = 3, Queen = 2, Jack = 1).
5. Reach 7 Points: The game concludes when a player reaches 7 points. Alternatively, the game ends when all playable cards have been dealt, and points are tallied to determine the winner.

Ser a primeira equipe a atingir 21 pontos fazendo vadas com o naipe trunfo.

1. Distribua 6 cartas para cada jogador.
2. Os jogadores fazem lances de 1 a 4 (ou até o número de pontos possíveis).
3. O maior lance vence o leilão e determina o trunfo abrindo uma carta desse naipe.

• High: A carta de trunfo mais alta jogada = 1 ponto
• Low: A carta de trunfo mais baixa jogada = 1 ponto
• Jack: O Valete de trunfo = 1 ponto (se jogado)
• Game: A equipe com mais pontos de face (J=1, Q=2, K=3, A=4, 10=10) = 1 ponto

Se a equipe que venceu o leilão fizer pelo menos tantos pontos quanto seu lance, marca esses pontos. Caso contrário, é penalizada com o valor do lance (pontos negativos ou setback).
