How Belote is played here
The rules this table deals by. Everybody at the table sees the same lines before the first hand.
- Thirty-two cards, eight each. In trumps the order is jack, nine, ace, ten, king, queen — the jack is worth 20 and the nine 14. In every other suit it is ace, ten, king, queen, jack, and a jack there is worth only 2.
- Runs of three, four and five score 20, 50 and 100, and four of a kind scores 100 to 200 by rank. Only the side holding the single best declaration scores at all — and then everything that side holds counts.
- Belote et rebelote — the king and queen of trumps in one hand — is 20, and it always scores for whoever holds it whatever else is shown.
- The side that takes the trump must score more than the other. Level is a failure: they go dedans and everything on the table goes across, their own declarations with it.
How it works
- Open a table. It gets a short code of its own.
- Read the code out, or send the link. Anyone you send it to sits down as a guest, without an account.
- Deal once everyone is seated — or give each empty chair a bot and start now.
