INTRODUCTION OF GHOST HAND EUCHRE (3 PLAYER)

Euchre is an American trick taking game that finds its origins in the Pennsylvania Dutch country of the United States.  While most people who play Euchre are playing Turn Up, Bid Euchre is a fun alternative way to play.  Four players typically play in teams of two, but it is sometimes difficult to get four players together for a game (especially four players who know how to play Euchre).  Ghost Hand Euchre is a great alternative for a group of three.  The team aspect is removed, and players are pitted against each other individually.  메이저놀이터

THE CARDS & THE DEAL

Ghost Hand uses a typical Euchre deck built of twenty four cards. This deck ranges from the 9’s up through the Aces. 

Ghost Hand Euchre is played individually with each player trying to be the first to score 32 points.

The dealer gives six cards to each player by dealing one card at a time. A fourth hand is still dealt as if there is a fourth player.  This is the the Ghost Hand, and it remains face down.

Once all of the cards are dealt, players look at their hand and determine how many tricks they think they can take. 

THE BID

Rotating clockwise from the dealer, players claim how many tricks they are going to take this round.  The lowest bid possible is three.  If a player doesn’t think they can take at least three tricks, they say pass.  Players must overbid each other in order to determine trump and go first.  For example, if player one bids three, everyone else at the table must bid four or more if they want to determine trump. 

It is possible for a player to take all six tricks.  This is called shooting the moon.  Players do not “bid six”.  They simply say, “I am shooting the moon.”  This sends the message that you have the highest bid, and it sounds way cooler. 

If every player passes, there must be a redeal.  All cards are collected and the deal is passed to the left.

The player with the highest bid determines trump for the hand.  That person is responsible for taking that many cards.

THE GHOST HAND

In this game, if a player is unsatisfied with their hand, they may choose to exchange it with the Ghost Hand prior to making their bid.  They must immediately pass or bid on that new hand.

Once someone has switched with the Ghost Hand, no one else is allowed to do so.  The new Ghost Hand becomes a dead hand, and it is simply ignored for the rest of the round.
