Guide on How to Play Euchre: Rules, Scoring, Wins, Strategies, and Card Game Instructions

Euchre is a trick-taking card game that is played with four players in two partnerships. The game is played with a 24-card deck that consists of the 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King, and Ace of each suit (clubs, diamonds, hearts, and spades).

The objective of the game is to be the first partnership to win 10 tricks. Tricks are won by playing the highest card of the suit that was led, or by trumping the suit that was led with a higher trump card.

To start the game, the deck is shuffled and each player is dealt five cards. The remaining cards are placed in a pile in the center of the table.

The player to the left of the dealer leads the first trick by playing any card they want. The other players then take turns playing a card, following suit if possible. If a player cannot follow suit, they may play any card they want, including a trump card.

The highest card of the suit that was led wins the trick, unless a trump card is played. If a trump card is played, the highest trump card wins the trick.

The player who wins the trick collects the cards that were played and places them in a pile in front of them. The player who won the trick then leads the next trick.

The first partnership to win 10 tricks wins the game. If a partnership wins all 13 tricks, they win the game by a "march."

Each trick that a partnership wins is worth one point. If a partnership wins five or more tricks, they earn an additional two points. If a partnership wins all 10 tricks, they earn an additional three points.
