HEARTS

Lowest score wins.

Every heart costs you one and the queen of spades costs you thirteen. The whole game is getting rid of tricks you would rather not win.

Choose a game

Follow suit if you can. The two of clubs leads the first trick, and no hearts or the queen may be played on it. Hearts cannot be led until one has been discarded. Take every heart and the queen — shoot the moon — and the other three take twenty-six each instead. Three cards are passed before each hand, left, right, across, then none.
