How Bid Euchre works
Take tricks to reach 52 points with your partner opposite you.
Read the full Bid Euchre rules and tips1. The deal
A 32-card double deck: the jack, queen, king and ace of each suit, twice over, dealt eight cards each. Your partner sits across the table.
2. Bid
Say how many of the eight tricks your side will take, from one to eight, then pick trump: one of the four suits, or No trump. Passing costs nothing.
3. Or name no trump
In no trump there are no bowers at all and the jack drops to the bottom of its suit, below the queen. Every trick goes to the highest card of the suit led, so aces and kings are what a no trump bid is made of.
