Euchre on Windows Pc

The game of Euchre, also called Bid Euchre, Ecarté, Knock Euchre, Lanterloo, Loo or eucre is a trick taking card game played with four people in two partnerships with a deck of 24, 28, or sometimes 32, standard playing cards, It is the game responsible for introducing the joker into modern packs..

Euchre is a four player trump game, wherein the players are paired to form two partnerships. Partners face each other from across the table so that the play of the cards in conventional clockwise order alternates between the two partnerships.
Conventional euchre uses a deck of 24 standard playing cards consisting of A, K, Q, J, 10, and 9 of each of the four suits.
A 52 card deck can be used, omitting the cards from 2 to 8, or a Pinochle deck may be divided in half to form two euchre decks. Sometimes, a 32 card piquet or skat deck is used, which includes the 8s and 7s..

The remaining four cards are called the kitty and are placed face down in front of the dealer toward the center on the table. The top card of the kitty is then turned face up, and bidding begins. (In the 25 card version of the game, if the "Benny" is turned up, the dealer calls a suit before anyone looks at their cards and picks it up. However some variations allow a normal bidding process to take place). The dealer asks each of the other players in turn if they would like the suit of the top card to be trump, which they indicate by saying "pick it up" or ‘pass’ (knocking on the table is often substituted for vocalizing a pass). If the choice comes around to the dealer, the dealer can either pick the card up or flip it over. If the dealer acquires the top card (either by being ordered to pick it up or choosing to pick it up), the top card becomes part of the dealer's hand, who then discards a card to the kitty face down to return their hand to five cards. If no one orders up the top card and the dealer also chooses not to pick it up, each player is then given the opportunity, in turn, to call a different suit as trump. If no trump is selected, it is a misdeal, and the deal is passed clockwise (unless it was agreed upon to play stick the dealer, an option that involves forcing the dealer to choose a trump).
When a suit is named trump, the Jack in the suit of the same color as this trump suit becomes a powerful member of this trump suit. Then any card of that (expanded) suit outranks any card of a non-trump suit. The highest-ranking card in euchre is the Jack of the trump suit (called "The Right Bower" or "Right") then the other Jack of the same color, (called "The Left Bower" or "Left"). The cards are ranked, in descending order, J (of trump suit), J (same color as trump suit), A, K, Q, 10, and 9 of the trump suit.
The remaining cards rank in the usual order (the off colors Jacks are not special) and the cards of those suits rank from high to low as A, K, Q, J, 10, and 9.
Example

Assume a hand is dealt and that spades are named as trump. In this event, the trump cards are as follows, from highest-ranking to lowest:
1. jack of spades (right Bower)
2. Jack of clubs(left Bower)
3. Ace of spades
4. King of spades
5. Queen of spades
6. 10 of spades
7. 9 of spades

The first team to score 10 (sometimes 5, 7, 11, or 15) points wins the game. Some players choose to play "win by two" where there is no winner until a team has more than 10 points and 2 points more than the other team. Winning a game 10–0 is known as skunking in the US.
