How to Play Whist

[@mikekelly8044]

How many rounds are there?

[@kaz-ucchini]

There are 4 players, each with 13 cards, so there are 13 tricks (rounds) per game

So It’s euchre with more cards, random trump, and different scoring.

Also known as, not euchre

[@thatgeek8064]

It's nothing like euchre besides them both being trick taking games. If you don't know about any others, I highly reccomend learning some more. There's a lot of good ones

1. What if there are 2 or more people who put down the same highest rank while none has played the trump card?
2. What happens if a person just wants to put anything down even though he/she has a required suit in their hand to be put down?

[@cardflopper3307]

1. no two cards are equal. Trumps beat anything and Within a suit the highest is ACE, then KING, QUEEN... down to TWO. Usually only one suit will appear in a trick. If there are multiple suits in a trick (because someone can't follow suit) then the highest card of the LEAD SUIT will win the trick. (the LEAD SUIT is the suit of the first card played in a trick).
2. The rule is that if you can follow suit, you must.

[@BoterKat]

@@cardflopper3307 What if 2 players both play an evenly high card and both cards are different from the suit?

[@rickrawr19]

@@BoterKatin that case the one who played/followed the leading suit gets the trick.
