INTRODUCTION OF CHINKWAY

Chinkway is a trick taking game for five players with revolving partnerships created by Derek Carver.  It captures the essence of Dungeons and Dragons in that the dealer acts alone and is given much power over the round.  Although this game is played in partnerships, players are still trying to win on their own.  This creates an interesting dynamic when the two players in the lead are partnered together.  Not all tricks are created equal in this game as only certain cards have a point value.  온카지노

THE CARDS & THE DEAL

Chinkway uses two 52 cards decks.  One deck will be used for playing (referred to as the game deck), and the second deck will be used to determine the target cards for the round (referred to as the quest deck).

before the game begins two picture cards are removed randomly. This leaves the quest deck with 50 cards,

PARTNERING FOR EACH ROUND

Partnerships change each round.  To help determine the partnerships, the dealer is always considered player 1.  For rounds 1 – 5, players 2 & 3 are partners, and players 4 & 5 are partners.  Deal passes left each round causing partners to change.  For rounds 6 – 11, players 2 & 4 are partners, and players 3 & 5 are partners. 

THE DEAL

The dealer shuffles the game deck and deals.  Ten cards are dealt to each player except for the dealer who is dealt twelve.  The dealer chooses 2 cards to discard from their hand and then declares a trump suit for the round.  The dealer may also call no trumps.

THE QUEST 

After determining the trump suit (or no trumps) for the round, the dealer turns over five quest cards.  These cards are used to determine points earned for the round.  Quest cards can be broken down into five categories: Spades Ace – 10, Hearts Ace – 10, Diamonds Ace – 10, Clubs Ace – 10, and Court Cards.  The Court Card category includes all of the face cards from each suit.

THE PLAY

Player 2 leads the first trick.  They play any card they want from their hand.  The players that follow must play a card in the same suit if they can.  If they can’t follow suit, they can play any card.  The highest ranked card in the lead suit or the highest ranked trump card captures the trick.  Whoever captures a trick leads.

QUEST COMPLETE

Each quest card represents part of the quest that players are trying to complete.  A part of the quest is completed when a player captures a trick that contains a card of the same category.  After a player captures the trick, they can choose one card from it that matches the category of a quest card.  That card is placed in front of them face up.  Partners are not allowed to help decide which card to choose when the trick contains more than one.  The rest of the trick is set aside.  

Example trick: If the quest cards included the  3♣, A♥, J♣, Q♦, 9♦, and player 2 captures a trick that contains the 5♣, they would be able to claim the 5♣ from the trick and place it in front of them.   

Play until all ten tricks have been captured.  During the round, teams are trying to capture a card for each part of the quest.  In
