 Chapter 3 "HOW TO RECEIVE A BRIBE" So, the deck is dealt. To play the game
it is desirable that cards come from the distribution

ladies... You need to combine them in
more BRIBE.                           
                                         
  A BRIBE is when you play a card and
your partners cannot (or do not want) to
beat her with the highest card. Option: you hit
partner cards with your highest card.
Each player places his trick near the
bya, following at it at an angle of 90.       
                                         
  Let's talk about bribes. For example, your race
treasure: spade - ace (T), king (K), queen (D);
clubs (like a cross) - 7, 8, jack (B),
D, K; tambourine - 8, V. This alignment allows
tells you to take seven bribes. Let me remind you that
since each player has 10 cards, then
10 tricks are always played. So,
you can take 7 bribes and, accordingly,
but, 3 - give it away.                          
                                         
  This is how it's done. First you walk
from the ace, because there is no high card in spades, then
other partners discard one pico each
your card (naturally, any of them will be
child younger than your ace). The bribe belongs to
lives for you, since the highest card (ace) is
was yours. Well, I screwed it up ;)               
                                         
  Now - about your bribes in clubs. Maybe
thosewalk from any picture (for example, from
jack).  One of your partners

your ace partner says.  But now
Only you have the highest cards in the club, and
you will receive 4 bribes for them (you will take them from
partners the remaining 10 and 9). But if you
(God forbid!) trample first with 7 or
8, then your partners will take them to nine
or ten, i.e. you may not get 4
bribes, but only 3, or even 2.            
                                         
  There are no bribes in your tambourine, because
partners have cards that are older than yours
th jack and eight. Those. you give,
except for one trick in clubs, 2 more in diamonds
no. As a result, you took 7 bribes and gave 3.
                                         
  Now let's talk about what cards and
combinations tend to take bribes.
The most important bribe taker is the ace. Then
should be marriage (king and queen of the same mas-
tee): the king or queen is given to one
the highest card - an ace and, correspondingly,
wall, the king or queen that remains,
are as a result older and take
bribe.  There is also such a combination as
trellis - B, D, K of the same suit. This trellis
takes two bribes - any of the pictures from -
given to the Ace of that suit. Combinations
10,B,K and 10,B,D in the same suit are taken each
one bribe, giving two bribes in the first
case- on the queen and ace of this suit, and in
the second - on the king and ace. On the third car-
then in these cases you take a bribe. Right
yes, that's in theory. In a real game
There are such situations that none of the
does not take any of the listed combinations
bribes. Sometimes even aces are killed.      
                                         
  If you received K and, say, 9 - no
hurry up to play this suit, they will simply kill it
9 D, B or 10, and the king is an ace. Wait, maybe
maybe the opponent himself will enter with an ace - you
you'll throw off 9, and K will get a clean bribe. Also
the T, D combination is doubtful, I want to take it
two bribes, so try to get the co-
role.  The rest, I think, you'll get to
progress of the game.

ABSOLUTELY, RIGHT? In professional circles for
this may be punished if other players
will prove that in ANY situation they have you
take more than you ordered (called
underorder), but this is a rare CONTRACTUAL right-
ideal for experienced players. In general - you...
nyali: a big BULLET is good.         
                                         
  A big MOUNTAIN is bad, very bad. UP THE MOUNTAIN
all negative points for the game are written,
i.e.  penalty points for shortfalls during the game,
for the lack of bribes during whisting, for
bribes forSPACE.  In different companies
there are still some (negotiable) penalties
sanctions: for playing without demolishing the buy-in, for
demolition of the wrong suit, for entering with the wrong hand
when playing open, etc. Fines are written
at a “bullet” price, but for EACH under-
abusive bribe i.e. ordered 6, didn't get 2 -
get 2*2=4 uphill; went 9, took 6 - for
unfinished 3*8=24 (!!!) in the MOUNTAIN; took on
MIZERE 5 bribes - get 5*10=50. Also in
The Whist gets the mountain if he didn't take it
the prescribed number of whists (if the whist
if there are two people, then each of them needs to take
half whists - Half whist).             
                                         
 Now about BUCTAX. In the whist field they write
points (wists) for the player who played or
who did not play the ordered game. For each
bribe at the same rates. And if ig-
the paradise did not pick up, then the number of uncollected
bribes are added to the whists of the WHISTER.
The player on the 8th did not get 2, the first hang-
the player who takes 4 gets (4+2)*6=36 hang-
Comrade, the second 2 receives (2+2)*6=24 whists,
and the player, naturally, 2*6=12 in the MOUNTAIN. Even
Prikupnoy can get hold of whists at the expense of
"flying" player - he writes to himself
playing the number of bribes not taken by him
at the same price. Also prikupny writes on
playing whist, if he gave in the buy-in
the following cards: for two T in the draw he writes
wists for 3 bribes, for T,K (one mass-
ti) - as for 2bribes for one T - like
for 1 trick, for margin (D, K of the same suit)
- also 1 bribe. The cost of a bribe depends
from ordering the game. For example, I gave T for eight
measured game - got 6 whists. A lot
whists, unlike the big BULLET, are
always good (BULLET is also not bad, but
If you write to yourself in BULLET, then someone writes
VISTS are on you).                           
                                         
  A circle is drawn in the center of the mountain (I have
the result is a rectangle), where it is indicated
the cost of VISTA and the size of BULLET.

  MIZER - translated from Latin. "poor thing, it's a pity-
cue". Pathetic, not pathetic, but miserably played
- 10 per BULLET (not subject to VISTS!).    
                                         
  As I already said, MIZER is a must-
the player's responsibility is not to take any
bribes, otherwise fines for the couple
bribes will negate a dozen successfully played
early games.                              
                                         
 MIZER is announced on the first lap of the tor-
talk to the player (when it’s the turn to
him) who has not yet bargained and
voril PAS. Interrupted by MIZER nine

in turn is interrupted by a tenth (in
In different variants of the pref this order may
be changed, but most often I encountered
with these rules).                     
                                         
  After the announcement of the minuscule and the opening of the
kup, the miserist puts his cards open
you're on the table, his partners rewrite everything
12 cards, if they do not have a photographic
memory.  Then the miser takes his cards
and demolishes two unnecessary ones, naturally, in
closed. Next, the whistlers agree,will they play open, if so,
then they lie down and walk (when the miserist moves
first they wait for him to come). If the player goes
on MISER WITHOUT PURCHASE, then the purchase was not opened-
is displayed and the player's cards are not shown.   
                                         
  And a little tactics.  If the miserist has 7,
9,B,K (7.9,B or 7.9) in one suit - on
He doesn’t take a bribe with this suit. When not number
tom misere (with punctures) is sometimes better than you-
throw a naked 8,(9), and leave naked

then grab 4 - 6 with a “locomotive”.      
                                         
 "STEAM LOGO" is a term denoting the impossibility
the player's ability to get rid of a move. What
no matter how you look - the partners cannot
beat your card, forcing you to draw
ku for a bribe.

  PASSES are often found during the game
table They are one of the main reasons for takeoff
in "MOUNTAIN".  RAPAS is a game when everything
the players said PAS and each player stan-
tries to take as few bribes as possible.
Passes are named according to the cost of the game, which
which they get by with. The first one is six-
noah, when it is played, in the next game,
to order the game the player must go
minimum 7 peak. If there are no volunteers, please
Try to play the second (seven) pass.
The third (eighth) pass is interrupted
already the eighth game. After the third race

  After the announcement of the spread, the dealer
opens one card from the draw and that's it
queues put a card of the same suit, and if
there is no suit - any most “harmful” car-
that one  Someone took a bribe.  Then the creator
reveals the last card and the players post-
singin a similar manner. After the draw
The one who first said PASS is the one who buys.
When all the cards have been played, they count who
how much did you take?  The cost of one bribe per
first round - 2 (in other variants 1),
on the second, seventh - 4 (2), on the third,
eight - 6 (3) points. And these glasses
write to the MOUNTAIN!                          
                                         
  Passing systems are a negotiable rule,
still often found are one gear and
sevens all the way until someone pe-
beats the pass with a seven-player game. When playing

If there are three of us playing, the buy cards are still
they call only the suit with which you need to
die.                                    
                                         
  And most importantly, the player (or purchaser)
who has not taken a single bribe writes to himself
BULLET cost of pass.                  
                                         
  Passing tactics: take everything first
"our" bribes, which cannot be excused -
Xia, otherwise you might run into a “locomotive”.   
                                         
  Another unwritten rule: if a player
took 9 or 10 bribes, the rest
players honor this by standing.

      Chapter 9 "CARDS DRAW - PLAY"       
                                         
   That's all the basic rules. What's the purpose
games? The main goal of the game is to quickly collect
army BULLET. How? I already said - the results -
play actively.  The size of the BULLET is specified
before the game (from 5 to, say, 100, but ra-
smarter from 20 to 50). The game ends
when ALL players have closed the BULLET. EU-
if one player closes, he continues to play
army and TAKES ALL YOUR POINTS FROM
MOUNTAINS (writes off the mountain) i.e. gets rid of
fines(the mountain may even have a sign
minus).  This is the second goal -
take less uphill.                 
                                         
   The third, but not the last goal is to obtain
attack your friends with more WISTS. Sometimes
the mountain is big, closed late, and whists
at all - “the chickens don’t bite”, due to this
you break even (there have been cases of winning
!!!). Good VIST is the key to victory, only
do not bend - bad whist (not taken) -
road to MOUNTAIN.                           
                                         
 And the sacred duty is to make a mountain of part-
rough as high as possible. Whists must
help each other plant the player, he
your main goal. Prikupny should too
play "on the table", for a hint to the player
- fine.                                 
                                         
  In some variants, by typing BULLET, you can
but close partners by recording on them
VISTS tenfold. For 4 in PU-
Best of 40 whists, for 10 - 100. As for example in
game "PREFCLUB". I think this is not right-
but - everyone must close themselves.        
                                         
  Now about scoring. Recording in PUL-
KE is usually led by one person. Accepted pi-
send results immediately, i.e. to previous
add to the number in your mind just typed
data and write down the finished result. Nap-
example, was 14, played seven,became
18. Numbers are separated by dots 2.8.10.20.
24.26, etc. This applies to BULLET, MOUNTAIN and
VISTAM.                                  
                                         
  At the end of the game, the "counter" takes the paper,
calculator or ZX and performs calculations. 
                                         
 We don’t touch the BULLET - it’s the same for everyone. 
                                         
 MOUNTAIN all players coordinate and share
by the number of players (average arefmeti-
logical).  Then from S.A. one by one calculate
the MOUNTAIN of each player is hidden, multiplying
xia by 10 and written opposite each
player.  Be careful - some
the results will be negative. (For pro-
Verily, you can fold them, not forgetting about
signs - the result must be ZERO).          
                                         
 VISTS that players typed ON EACH OTHER
OTHERS, compared.  From more
the smaller one is torn and the difference is written to both
partners, only more “lucky” with
sign "+", and the other - with a minus. When-
mer, Vasya has 42 whist for Petya, Petya has
Vasya 136. From 136-42=94, Petya has +94 Vasya
-94.  So we find the difference between each
players (when playing with four players, each
the player must have three calculations according to the VIS-
THERE, three of us two each). Last action:
we summarize all calculations byevery player
(NOT FORGETING THE SIGNS!).  That's it, calculation
finished (to check, add up the totals
points of all players - you should get one
same zero).                                
                                         
  It is these final points that are those VIS-
YOU, whose price is written in the middle
mug.  Now players with "-" place their
loss according to the agreed price for whist
on the table, and players with "+" take the same
pricing your money, there should be no
