On the following hand, she is dealt just one card, and may decide on which trick to play it.
There is one exception to the rule about being knocked out: the first player during the game who takes no tricks on a hand is not knocked out immediately but is awarded the 'dog's life'. If there is a tie for who took most tricks, the players involved in the tie cut cards for the right to choose trumps.Ī player who takes no tricks at all in a hand is knocked out, is dealt no more cards, and takes no further part in the game.
The winner of most tricks on a hand chooses the trump suit on the next hand.
