INTRODUCTION OF CINCINNATI EUCHRE 

Cincinnati Euchre is a form of Bid Euchre once played in Cincinnati, Ohio.  The rules are recorded in the now out-of-print Official Rules of Card Games from Bicycle.  There are a few key differences that make this game different from the Bid Euchre that is reportedly played in Northwest and West Central Ohio.    

Each round, players will bid on how many tricks they think they can capture.  The bid-winner gets to name trump for the round.  If they wish, they may call no-trump instead.  Be careful while bidding!  If a player bids too high and fails to capture enough tricks, their team will be set back a number of points equal to their bid.   

The first team to reach a score of 32 points or more wins. 

THE CARDS & THE DEAL 

Cincinnati Euchre requires a 24 card deck made up of cards (low) 9 – Ace (high).  It is important to remember that the ranking of the suit chosen as trump changes.  It becomes 9,10,Q,K,A,Same Color Jack, & Jack.  For example, if Diamonds is named trump, the ranking of the Diamond suit becomes (low) 9,10,Q,K,A, Jack of Hearts, and Jack of Diamonds (high).  These two Jacks are known as the Left Bower and Right Bower respectively.   

It is also important to remember that the Left Bower counts as part of the trump suit for the round.  So if Diamonds are named trump, the Jack of Hearts becomes a Diamond for the round.  It must adhere to the rules of following suit when Diamonds are led.  

THE DEAL 

Euchre is a partnership game.  Partners sit across from each other at the table.  Determine a dealer.  That player shuffles the deck and doles out six cards to each player.  The cards should be dealt three at a time.  vat tu nong nghiep

THE PLAY 

The round begins with a bidding phase. 

THE BID 

Each player has an opportunity to bid on how many tricks they think their team can take if they win the bid.  The player that bids the highest will either name a trump suit or call no-trump.   

Bidding begins with the player to the dealer’s left.  This player is referred to as the eldest hand.  The eldest may either bid or pass.  The minimum bid is three tricks.  From there, a player may bid 4, 5, or Moon (meaning six tricks).  If a player bids Moon, they will have to play the round without their partner’s help.
