Euchre

Fast-paced trick game with 24 cards, bowers, ordering up, and going alone.

Deck and Bowers

Played with a 24-card deck (9, 10, J, Q, K, A in each suit) for 4 players in two partnerships.

Bowers: The Jack of the trump suit is the Right Bower (highest card in the game). The Jack of the other suit of the same colour is the Left Bower (second highest, treated as belonging to the trump suit).
Order in trump: Right Bower > Left Bower > A > K > Q > 10 > 9.

Ordering Up and Scoring

Players vote to make the turn-up card trump, or pass. In the second round, any other suit can be named.
Going Alone: A player may choose to play without their partner for higher rewards (4 points for sweeping all 5 tricks).
Makers must win at least 3 tricks (1 point, or 2 for a march of 5 tricks). If defenders win 3+ tricks, makers are euchred and defenders score 2 points. First to 10 points wins.
