Euchre or eucre (/ ˈ juː k ər / YU-kər) is a trick-taking card game commonly played in Australia, Canada, Great Britain, New Zealand, and the Midwestern United States. It is played with a deck of 24, 25, 28, or 32 standard playing cards.
If a player goes alone, both partners discard their hands face down and the lone player may ask either for a card. The partner asked may hand over any card and the lone player discards a card face-down in return. The score for a march or a euchre is 3 points instead of 2. If the winner is playing alone, the score is 6 points instead of 4. [4]
Teams score one point for three or four tricks, two points for all five tricks and four points for a loner. A team failing to achieve their number of tricks receives no points for any tricks won, and two points go to the other partner's score. An euchre sweep nets four points.
Euchre is normally played in a partnership format with two teams of two players each. Partners sit across from each other. (Three-handed and six-handed variations exist as well, but are less popular.)
