Suggested Improvements (placeholder Talk Page until all suggestions compiled and verified, prior to article edit)

Clarifications:

Game Objective: Winning conditions must be clear as the first statement of the rules. Collect the most points, as a two player team, over (x) rounds of trick taking. Points are scored in accordance with the scoring table at the bottom of the article. How many rounds of play are there??

Playable Card Combinations (by increasing value)

Pair (two cards of equal value)

A Full House (set + pair)

Card Play: Playing of cards must follow with a higher value of the same type of combination played by the previous player. ie If Player A plays a pair of 2's, Player B could follow with a higher pair of 4's. However, if Player A plays a pair of 6's, Player B could not follow with a set of 3's; Player B must follow with a higher pair or a Bomb.

Bomb Combinations (high ranked poker hands that do not have to follow the previous players combination type and can be played at any time)

Phoenix: The Phoenix has three clear options for use (1.5 as a lead single, add .5 to previously played single value card, wild value within any combination (pairs, sets, or straights)

Dragon: (you choose which one)???? (Ah - opponent not partner) (tactic not yt clear here - this is why game winning conditions and points objectives are critical for understanding)

Naming Conventions Consistencies:

Straight rather than Run (FYI a run is typically only 3 cards) Sequential rather than Sequence

Additions:

Are there any markers to indicate who made a Grand Tichu or Tichu bid?

Is the any indication / reminder of what the wish call was made? Set rather than Triple (and described as Three of a Kind or three of same value) Higher rather than bigger

Scoring table: Provide a precise scoring table rather than a text based description of scoring.

Grammar: Remove all the articles "A"
