Whists and points counting in a game «Bazar - Belote»
Whists of each Pair are summarized from the following items:
- For tricks including last trick (rus.: «posled») (VTp for playing players, VTv for whisting players)
Every Pair counts whists for the cards containing in the won tricks in accordance with the cards value in the played contract. VTp+VTv is always equal to S, where S – the value of the deck.
- For constructions including declared Bellas (VCp for playing players, VTv for whisting players)
The sum of whists for all played constructions of the Pair. Whists for constructions are countied in a favour of the whisting players even if they didn’t take any tricks in the deal. If the playing players didn’t take any tricks then the whists for their played constructions go to whisting players.
The contract is considered to be played if the playing players gained whists (Vp=VTp+VCp) not less than it was specified in the contract. The quantity of the whists gained by the whisting players (Vv=VTv+VCv) does not influence on the contract playing.
Special (Êàpî) contracts are considered to be played if the playing players took all tricks. If the whisting players took at least one trick even without whists the contract is considered not played.
Further the counting and record of points for the deal is carried out.
Points for a deal are counted taking into consideration the following:
- Contract (PC);
- The gained whists (Pp for playing players and Pv for whisting players).
Points for a contract are calculated depending on the base cost of the contract («C») which is:
| For simple games |
For special games |
| AT |
25 |
Kapo AT |
34 |
| rest |
16 |
Kapo (rest) |
25 |
| |
|
Kapo from a hand (all) |
50 |
The contract PC cost for:
- Simple games – number N named in the declaration.
- Special games – the sum of base cost of the contract and number K named in the declaration.
- All games with declared Kontra, points for the contract increase by 2 times.
- All games with declared Rekontra, points for the contract increase again by 2 times.
Points gained for the whists in usual games are calculated as follows (round - roundoff by arithmetic rules to multiple of 10 numbers (that is round (10,11,12,13 or 14)=10, round (15,16,17,18 or 19) =20), div - exact division):
Whisting players Pv = round (Vv) div 10;
- Playing players Pp = ((Vp+Vv) - Pv*10) div 10.
In any case Pv+Pp must not exceed C + (VCp+VCv)/10. Whisting players have an advantage that is if an exceeding takes place due to the roundoff then the odd point is deducted from the result of the playing players (it is counted in the formula for Pp).
For special (Êàpî) games points for the gained whists are calculated in the following way (whists for tricks are counted in the base cost of these contracts):
For whisting players Pv = VCv/10;
- For playing players Pp = C + VCp/10.
The result of the deal for the playing players is the following, if the contract:
- It is not played - 0 points (or Bait (BT), for playing players);
- Is played - PC+Pp;
- Is played with Kontra or Recontra - PC+Pp+Pv (BT for whisting players).
The result of the deal for the whisting players is the following, if the contract:
- Is not played (including with Kontra or Rekontra) - PC+Pp+Pv (BÒ for playing players);
- Is played – Pv;
- Is played with Kontra or Recontra - 0 points (BÒ for whisting players).
The result of the deal for each Pair is usually summed to the previous result figure in an appropriate column of the protocol, and the total sum is also written there.
Example ¹1:
Game 22 all trumps is declared.
The whisting players gained 37 whists. No one Pair had any constructions.
The playing players gained 258-37=221 whists. The sum of whists of the playing players (221) is more 220, therefore the contract is played.
The whisting players record 4 (37, rounded off to multiple of 10 and divided by 10) points.
The playing players record 22 (contract cost) plus 21 (a base cost of the contract 25 and minus 4 points given to the whisting players), total is 43 points, and not 44.
Example ¹2:
Game 12 clubs is declared.
The whisting players gained 18 whists, they also declared Bella.
The playing players gained 162-18=144 whists, terts was also in the game (20 whists).
The sum of whists of the playing players (164) is more 120, therefore the contract is played.
The whisting players record 2 (18, rounded off to multiple of 10 and divided by 10) plus 2 (20 whists for Bella divided by 10), total is 4 points.
The playing players record 12 (contract cost) plus 14 (a base cost of the contract 16 and minus 2 points given to whisting players) plus 2 (20 whists for terts divided by 10), total is 28 points.
Example ¹3:
Game 15 spades with Kontra is declared.
The whisting players gained 33 whists.
The playing players gained 162-33=129 whists, terz was also in the game (20 whists). The sum of whists of the playing players (149) is less 150, therefore the contract is not played.
The whisting players record 30 (15 multiplied by 2 for Kontra) plus 16 (a base cost of the contract) plus 2 (20 whists for terz devided by 10), total is 48 points.
The playing players record nothing (Bait).
The constructions value of different types and also the carrés value are described on a page «Cards cost and value».
