The Deal

Both players get five cards and the dealer puts the remainder face down as the stock, turning the top card to announce a trump suit.

Rules
The aim of the game is to gather more aces and 10s than your opponent. Declarations score even more points. When scoring one only counts gathered aces and 10s, but the order of the cards is the same as that of Belote

·        A

·        10

·        K

·        Q

·        J

·        9

·        8

·        7

In the case of a tie with 10 points either way one counts the pictures with the following points to decide:

·        King : 3

·        Queen : 2

·        Jack : 1

Melds [modifier | modifier le code]
Melds give the Chouine player even more points

The cards must be of the same tyoe

·        King and Queen of same suit : 20 pts

·        King Queen Jack same suit   : 30 pts

·        A, K, Q, J, T    : 40 pts

·        Five cards all aces or tens E.G. AAA TT or TTTTA : 50 pts

·        A,10, K, Q, J : chouine (The holder wins the game)

·        A, 10, K, Q, j : trump chouine  (The holder wins the match)

One doubles the score if the meld is in trumps

The player winning the last trick, wins "ten for last" an 10 additional points.
