🧩 Advanced Kaiser Tutorial
🃏 Special Cards
Some cards are exceptions and remain in the deck despite the general removal of 2–7:
♦7 (Seven of Diamonds) – Often a high-value card or scoring card.
♣7 (Seven of Clubs) – May have strategic importance.
♥5 (Five of Hearts) – Sometimes used as a penalty card.
♠3 (Three of Spades) – Often a bonus card.
These cards can drastically affect scoring and trick outcomes depending on the variant.
🔢 Bidding Strategy
Start conservatively: If you're unsure of your hand, bid the minimum (6).
Count your winners: Estimate how many tricks you can realistically win.
Watch others: If someone bids No-trump, expect reversed rankings and adjust your play.
Bluffing: You can bid higher to pressure others, but failing your bid means zero points.
🧠 Playing Tips
Lead with strength: Start tricks with your strongest suit to control the round.
Track suits: Pay attention to which suits have been played and which are still in play.
Use special cards wisely: Save the ♠3 for a clutch win or avoid the ♥5 if it's a penalty.
Adapt to No-trump: In No-trump rounds, low cards may beat high ones—plan accordingly.
🏁 Endgame & Winning
The game continues over multiple rounds.
The player with the highest cumulative score after a set number of rounds wins.
Strategic bidding and careful card play are key to long-term success.
