Getting started
Start the card game with two, three or four players. Only use one deck of 52 cards and leave the jokers out of the game. Be aware that the two of diamonds is the highest trump card. As a result of this, the two of diamonds defeats all the cards in the trump suit along with the ace. Make sure you deal 14 rounds of play. In the first round, distribute 13 cards to every player. In all other deals, give one card less. Moreover, in the last two deals, distribute just one card to every person. However, when you play the game with less than four players, know that a few cards will not be given out even in the first round of play. -
