Whist Rules
Overview: Whist is a straightforward trick-taking game played in pairs. Partners sit across from each other and aim to collect as many tricks as possible.
Dealing and Starting:
Each player is dealt 13 cards.
The first player to start is chosen randomly.
In subsequent rounds, the starter is the player to the left of the previous starter.
A round consists of 13 tricks, and a new round begins when all cards have been played and redealt.
Trumps:
Each round features a trump suit, which ranks higher than other suits.
Every fifth round has no trump suit.
The order of trumps is: Hearts, Spades, Diamonds, Clubs, and No Trump.
Playing:
The leading player can play any card, including a trump.
Following players must play a card of the same suit if they have one; otherwise, they can play any card.
The highest card in the leading suit wins the trick, unless a trump card is played, in which case the highest trump wins.
The winner of the trick leads the next trick.
Scoring:
After a round, scores are tallied.
Each team gets a point for every trick over six.
Points accumulate across rounds, and the first team to reach 7 points wins the game.
Since there are 13 tricks per round, winning all 13 tricks in one round secures an immediate victory.
