OVERVIEW OF MPOURLOTO

Mpourloto is a 4-player trick-taking game where players will be in two fixed partnerships of 2.

This is achieved by winning tricks with certain cards in them as well as playing certain melds of cards together.   오공슬롯

SETUP

To setup Mpourloto you will need to modify a 52-card deck to a 32-card deck. You can do this by removing all 7s and below leaving a deck of Aces, Kings, Queens, Jacks, 10s, 9s, 8s, and 7s. 

A dealer should be chosen at random and then the dealer will pass to the left each round. The dealer will shuffle the deck and the player to their right should cut the deck. Then the dealer will deal each player a 5-card hand. After hands are dealt the next card will be flipped to show the potential trump suit. The remaining cards are placed in the center of the table facedown.

The player to the left of the dealer will be the first to either accept the trump or pass. If they pass this chance is given to the next player to their left who can also pass or take the trump, this continues until a player accepts the trump or all 4 players pass. 

If all 4 players pass another round around the table starts where a player may accept and name any suit as the trump suit or pass. If all players pass again then all cards are collected and redealt. 

Once the trump suit has been decided if a player holds the 7 of the trump suit they may exchange the 7 for the card that was flipped in the center of the table. After this, the dealer will continue to deal and give each player 3 more cards and taking the final card left in the center as their final card.
