Whisting features
Responsible whist. It means that for each undertrick on whist the whisting player is written a full cost of the contract value in the mountain.
For example, a 6 tricks contract was played. The declarer took seven tricks. The record will be the following:
- 2 points is written to the declarer in the pool for the made 6 tricks contract.
- The defender is written in the mountain: 1 (1 undertrick) * 2 (full cost of the undertricking in the 6 tricks contract) = 2 points.
- The defender for 3 taken tricks writes on the declarer 3*2=6 whists.
Zhlobsky whist. If a declarer undertrickes then the passing player writes only consolation (the award for the undertricking by the declarer), and only the whisting player writes whists for the taken tricks. The consolation is recorded in addition to whists for the taken tricks to both players.
For example, a 7 tricks contract was played The declarer took five tricks. One opposing player whisted and another passed. The whisting player took five tricks accordingly. The record will be the following:
- The declarer for 2 undertrickings is written in the mountain 2*4=8 points.
- 5 actual tricks: 5*4=20 whists;
The whisting player consolation for two additional tricks: 2*4=8 whists, total 20+8=28 whists.
The passing player consolation will be 2*4=8 whists. In total, on the declarer is written 28+8=36 whists.
If both players whisted then the record will be made as follows:
- The declarer for 2 undertrickings will be written in the mountain 2*4=8 points.
The first whisting player. Took 3 tricks. For actual tricks: 3*4=12 whists. Consolation for 2 additional tricks: 2*4=8 whists. In total, the first whisting player will write on the declarer 12+8=20 whists.
The second whisting player. Took 2 tricks. For actual tricks: 2*4=8 whists. Consolation for two additional tricks: 2*4=8 whists. In total, the second whisting player writes on the declarer 8+8=16 whists.
As a result, 20+16=36 whists will be written on the declarer. All pass
The record for the taken tricks in the «All pass» round is made in the mountain. The basic trick cost in the «All pass» round is agreed before the game beginning. It is usually one point for a trick.
For classical type of Preference "Sochi" the trick cost on «All pass» round doesn't depend on what round of «All pass» is played in a row (1 – 1 - 1). The «All pass» round is possible with the arithmetic progression (1 – 2 - 3).
If a player didn't take any tricks then the cost of one trick is written in his pool. The talon in the «All pass» round is open.
When there are three players in the game then the card of the talon shows the suit of the lead and when there are four players then the cards of the talon belong to the dealer.
Before the game beginning it is necessary to agree – what to do if the fourth player didn’t take any tricks – to write off the cost of one trick from the mountain in the current «All pass» round or not to write off anything.
The exit from «All pass» round is hard. The exit with remise is impossible.
The game end
Players agree before the game how many points each player must have in a pool. The game goes on till the moment until each player reaches the agreed points in the pool.
