Euchre Card Game

Euchre is a team based 4 player trick taking card game where the player is playing in a team with the player across from him, and trying to take enough tricks to win the hand. Euchre is a trick taking game with a trump suit that varies with each hand. The most complicated part of the game is probably deciding which suit is trump. Initially 5 cards are dealt to each of the players, and a single card is dealt face up by the dealer. The player to the dealer's left, may choose to order the dealer to pick it up and discard a card in his hand. If this happens, the suit of that card becomes trump. If the player passes, each other player has the opportunity to oreder the card up, or the dealer can choose to pick it up. If no one orders up the card, the players all have the opportunity to choose which suit will be trump. If the team that chooses trump wins the hand, they get a single point. If they loose, the winning team gets 2 points.
