INTRODUCTION OF FARMER HENRY

Farmer Henry is a hand shedding game that is typically played in Germany with a Skat deck.  However, it is easily played with a 32 card French deck.  In Farmer Henry, suits are ranked and each player has a different trump suit assigned to them.  All four Jacks are bowers and follow the same ranking structure as the four suits. 

During play, each player tries to play as many cards from their hand as possible and be the first to get rid of all their cards. 온라인슬롯

THE CARDS & THE DEAL

From a 52 card deck, remove the 2’s – 6’s of each suit. They are not used for this game. All four Jacks are Bowers in this game and rank (low) J of Diamonds, J of Hearts, J of Spades, J of Clubs (high).  The rest of the cards rank from (low) 7 – Ace (high) with Clubs has the highest ranking suit, then Spades, Hearts, and Diamonds as the lowest.

Shuffle the remaining 32 cards and deal 8 cards to each player.

THE PLAY

DETERMINE TRUMPS

The player who has the Ace of Clubs announces it and possesses Clubs as their trump suit for the game.  The remaining trump suits are assigned in counter-clockwise order around the table.  The next player to the right has Spades, then Hearts, and finally Diamonds.

THE FIRST TRICK

The player holding the Ace of Clubs also leads the first trick.  They play any card.  The next player must try to win the trick with a card that follows suit.  If it is not possible for them to accomplish this,  they must play a trump card or a Jack.  Remember, each player has a trump suit assigned to them, and they play from that suit to trump a trick.  If a player is unable to beat the card that was just played by the player before them, the player must pick up the trick from the table and add the cards to their hand.  The next player leads the new trick.

If four cards are played to the trick, the trick-winner collects the trick and places it aside.  They lead the next trick.

As players run out of the cards and fall out of the game, play continues until only one player remains with cards in their hand.
