Flotzl Tournament

Flotzl is a trick taking card game where taking the last trick each hand brands you the loser. In play for regular Flotzl, game ends when a score of 27 is reached. In Tournament Flotzl, we’ll play four hands per game, 3 games total. The 27 rule is not used. Players will draw for table and position each game. You’ll keep your score on your own sheet and turn that in after play. 

Game play is meet or beat the highest card played each hand, not just the card played in front of you. You must meet or beat the highest card played in the current hand. If you cannot, you must play the lowest card in your hand (2s low, Aces high). Tricks are not taken. Splay your played cards in front of you for all to see. Whoever takes the trick leads for the next trick. Just don’t take the last trick! If you do, that card becomes part of your score.
