For each declared royal pair, consisting of a king and queen of the same suit, 20 points are awarded, and if you are lucky enough to discard the king and queen of the trump suit, you get 40 points.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Points are counted for a player only if the player has taken at least one trick. For a won trick, the player receives as many points as the sum of the values of the cards taken. For example, if you take a king and a jack with a ten, you will get 4+2+10=16 points in total.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Many_Players_Play\"><\/span><b>How Many Players Play?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is most convenient to play with two players, but 3 or 4 friends can also play.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Goal_of_the_Game_Sixty-Six\"><\/span><b>What is the Goal of the Game Sixty-Six?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By taking tricks, collect a certain number of points as quickly as possible. Indeed, the winner is the one who collects exactly 66 points. The point counting is interesting and special because the players themselves have to count the points in their minds and notify their game partners when they have collected the required amount. It is worth mentioning that it is important to keep track of not only your own but also your opponent's points, as it is very easy to cheat.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Card_Game_66\"><\/span>Card Game 66<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><iframe title=\"How To Play 66\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jr0IdK-Ls14?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">First, the dealer thoroughly shuffles the cards, allows another player to cut them, and deals 6 cards to each player \u2013 3 times 2 cards each.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The top card of the remaining undealt deck shows the trumps. It is turned face up, placed on the table, and covered with the same undealt deck.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lets_Start\"><\/span>Let's Start!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The game is started by the player sitting to the left of the dealer. They place any desired card. The trick goes to the player who placed the highest value card. All cards can be taken with any value trump, and trump cards can be taken with higher value cards of the same trump suit. The player who wins the trick takes the top card of the deck.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Then, each player takes one card from the deck so that they have 6 cards in their hands again. The new turn is started by the player who won the trick.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If players discard cards of the same value, for example, a jack and a jack, the trick is won by the first player who placed the card. If more players are playing, they can take both jacks with a queen, king, ten, or ace.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pairs\"><\/span><strong><i>Pairs<\/i><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A player has the right to play with pairs only when they have already won at least one trick. Also, when they start the trick first. This means that responding with a queen or king does not &#8220;play&#8221; together and does not form a pair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When declaring a pair of face cards, the player must first place the queen in the trick, and other players can demand to see the king to ensure that the game partner is not lying. As mentioned before, for a declared pair of queen and king, players receive an additional 20 or 40 points, even if they do not win the trick.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Exchange<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A player holding the lowest value card \u2013 a nine \u2013 has the right to exchange it once during the game for the trump card turned face up on the table. The exchange is possible only if at least one game has been won and at least one successful trick has been made during that game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Don't Forget to Count!<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The player who wins the trick must mentally calculate its value and then place the cards in their trick pile. These cards cannot be looked at again, so the number of points collected must be remembered very well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Closing<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As long as the card pool is not exhausted, it is not necessary to take the placed card with a card of the same suit or a trump card. For example, if you discard a club queen, your opponent can win the trick by discarding a spade king. When the cards run out and the pool is exhausted, the rules become stricter, and the game becomes more interesting!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Players with the last cards must respond only with cards of the same suit, and if they do not have such cards \u2013 then with trumps. For example, if you discard a club queen, your opponent will win the trick by discarding only a club king, ten, ace, or any trump card.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Winning\"><\/span><strong>Winning\u00a0<b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-767662 alignright\" title=\"\u0161e\u0161iasde\u0161imt \u0161e\u0161i 66\" src=\"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kortu-zaidimas-66.png\" alt=\"kort\u0173-\u017eaidimas-66\" width=\"460\" height=\"276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kortu-zaidimas-66.png 400w, https:\/\/staging.pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kortu-zaidimas-66-300x180.png 300w, https:\/\/staging.pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/02\/kortu-zaidimas-66-200px-120px.png 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/><\/span><\/b><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As soon as a player counts that they have collected all 66 points, they must announce it with a pre-agreed word, for example, &#8220;Now!&#8221;, &#8220;Sixty-six!&#8221; or &#8220;Done!&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If, upon checking the player's cards, it turns out that they were mistaken or lied, the player immediately loses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If players discard all the cards, but no one collects 66 points, the game is won by the player who takes the last trick of the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_Point_Calculation\"><\/span><strong>New Point Calculation<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To make the game even more interesting, you can organize a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">tournament and count points slightly differently after each deal, for example:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A player gets 1 point if the opponent collects 33 or more points;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A player gets 2 points if the opponent won at least one trick but collected less than 33 points;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The player gets 3 points if the opponent fails to take a single trick;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The winner is the one who first collects 7 points.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Card_Game_66_%E2%80%93_Different_Game_Variants\"><\/span>Card Game 66<b>\u00a0&#8211;

of the queen and king with trump cards is only possible when the last cards are dealt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This variant of the game is considered slightly more difficult than the usual one and is sometimes called by the local Austrian and Hungarian name <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Schnapskarten. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Additionally, special decks with fewer cards have been created for this game.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>\u201eFour-Hand and North American 66\u201c\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This variant is also played with a deck of 24 cards. The game is played by 2, 3, or 4 players (in pairs). Players sit opposite each other and place bets. Points are accumulated in parts \u2013 33 each.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Betting<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In this variant, players bet on how many points they will be able to collect during one round. The player sitting to the left of the dealer starts first. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Each player must bet an increasing number of points or pass (passing is allowed only once). Additionally, if your partner bets 1 and you bet 2, your final bet becomes 2.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_5_Betting_Variants_%E2%80%93\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">5 Betting Variants &#8211;<\/span><\/i><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1 bet \u2013 33 points. It is advisable to bet 1 if the player has an ace or a ten and two other cards of the same suit and knows or decides the trump suit. If the player has a pair of queen and king, they can reach a total of 40 points, so in any case, they win.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">2 bets \u2013 66 points. This is slightly more than the total value of the deck. To bet 2, you need to have at least one pair of king and queen (40 points). It is likely that your game partner will have at least 26 points to win the bet.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3 bets \u2013 99 points. Quite risky, but possible with a pair of trumps \u2013 queen and king.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">4 bets \u2013 132 points. Players rarely choose this bet because the entire deck has only 120 points. Additional points can only be collected with pairs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">5 bets are called &#8220;Moon&#8221; or &#8220;Solo Game&#8221;. The game partner passes, and the remaining player plays alone.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><i>Tricks<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The player who declares the highest number of points wins the bet and starts the game.\u00a0 The trump card becomes the one with which the game begins. Players must follow the suit and if they have a higher value card of the same suit, they must play it. If not, they play with trumps. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In this case, it is possible to force the opponent to discard all trump cards, while you discard worthless cards, such as nines. If you do not have a card of the same suit or a trump card, you can play any card.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Scoring<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One suit has 30 points, and the entire deck has 120, so the card values are the same as in the traditional &#8220;Sixty-Six&#8221;. Additional points are also awarded for pairs of queen and king. The team that wins the bet counts their points first. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is important to note that if the pair \u2013 queen and king \u2013 were not shown during the game, their points are not counted.
