606 Ohio Pike

Cincinnati, Ohio 45245

PLAYERS NEED TO ARRIVE BY 6:45PM TO GET REGISTERED TO PLAY!

*Players arriving after 6:45PM may not get to play.

PLAY STARTS AT 7:00PM SHARP

Round Robin (different partner each round) tournament style euchre. Get together with old friends and make a new ones. One thing we all have in common is our love of euchre. This is a fast-paced game night for those that already know how to play euchre.

Come early (6-6:30ish) to complete the registration. Please also consider coming even earlier to eat! Jimmy B's allows us to use their private room for free each week so we need to support their business by ordering food and drinks. If you come early to eat and drink and socialize, please tell the host to direct you to the euchre room. We will have a server taking care of us before and during the tournament (and don't forget to leave him/her a tip!).

Please RSVP and cancel if you sign up and then cannot attend. Please note that there are times when other players may show up that have not RSVP'd through meetup, so total number of players on meetup is often not accurate or up to date,

*If you have not RSVP'd through Meetup, Facebook, or contacted me (513-673-3158) that you will be there, you may not get to play

TOURNAMENT COST: $5

Prize money will be split between the top 3 highest scorers. Typically, the payout is 1st Place 60%, 2nd Place 30%, 3rd Place 10%. This can vary based on number of players or ties.

BRING QUARTERS!

Each player on a team that gets euchred must put 25 cents in the euchre cup at the table.

**See General Rules and Guidelines for a player getting euchred when going "Alone".

All quarters collected from the cups will be tallied and 1st and 2nd place winners will draw 2 names (players that did not place) to split the total amount of the quarters.

GENERAL RULES AND GUIDELINES

HAVE FUN!

Each round will consist of either 4 players (2 teams) playing, or 3 players (all playing alone) at each table. We will play 8 rounds.

Assignments for each round will go by the seating chart that is based on total number of players. Each round is 8 hands. Each player deals twice, with the exception for 3 player game dealing 3 times and the score keeper dealing twice. Instructions for a 3 player will be at the table.

If applicable, BYE players (not playing a round) shall receive 6 points on their scorecards for each game they sit out.

Play is S.T.D. (stick the dealer) after 7 consecutive PASSES in a hand the dealer HAS to call trump.

Misdeals are redealt by the dealer.

A cut must be offered by the dealer to the RHO (right hand opponent). A cut will consist of 1 cut (not multiple cuts to the deck).

Score will be kept by 1 person at the table using the provided score sheet.

Each player MUST play the hand they are dealt. (No redeal if a player is dealt "Ace No Face" or "All 9's and 10's")

If a team gets euchred, each player on that team must put a quarter in the euchre cup and 2 points is awarded to the other team.

**If a player goes "Alone" and gets euchred, that player must put in 2 quarters in the euchre cup and the opposing team receives 2 points.

Before a card is thrown, the person calling Trump must SAY what Trump will be, and if applicable, announce they are playing Alone.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Once a hand is dealt, there are ONLY 4 RESPONSES. 1."Pass" 2."Pick it up" (or That's trump) 3."Pick it up, I'm going (or I'll play it) Alone" 4."I'll play it (or I'm going) Alone in (named suit)"

All players must RSVP through Facebook OR Meetup OR by contacting me, Rhonda Reiser, at 513-673-3158. If you do not RSVP, you will need to wait until all players with RSVP's are signed in. Players without an RSVP will be allowed to play if they fill a table.

*ALL FINAL DECISIONS ARE MADE BY THE HOST (Rhonda Reiser or alternate named host)
