One card is placed face-up under the stock (Talon); its suit is the trump suit.<br /> # &#039;&#039;&#039;Trick-taking:&#039;&#039;&#039; The non-dealer leads the first card. As long as the stock is not empty or &quot;closed,&quot; there is &#039;&#039;&#039;no requirement&#039;&#039;&#039; to follow suit. The higher card of the suit led or a trump wins the trick.<br /> # &#039;&#039;&#039;Drawing:&#039;&#039;&#039; After each trick, both players draw a card from the stock (winner first).<br /> # &#039;&#039;&#039;Announcements (Marriages):&#039;&#039;&#039; If you hold the King and Queen of the same suit, you can announce them when leading one of them (20 points; 40 points in trumps). Points only count if the player wins at least one trick.<br /> <br /> === Special Actions ===<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Exchanging (Robbing):&#039;&#039;&#039; If you hold the Trump Jack, you may swap it for the face-up trump card under the stock (if it is your turn to lead).<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Closing the Stock:&#039;&#039;&#039; If a player believes they can reach 66 points without drawing more cards, they can &quot;close&quot; the stock. From this moment on, players &#039;&#039;&#039;must&#039;&#039;&#039; follow suit and win the trick if possible.<br /> <br /> === Scoring ===<br /> The round ends as soon as a player reaches 66 points or the last trick is taken. The winner earns game points:<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;3 points:&#039;&#039;&#039; If the opponent has no tricks.<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;2 points:&#039;&#039;&#039; If the opponent has fewer than 33 points (Schneider).<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;1 point:&#039;&#039;&#039; If the opponent has 33 or more points.<br /> The overall goal is to count down from 7 points to 0.</div>
