Card game, tute family, in which 2 pairs of players. compete with each other

La cuatrola is a card game, from the tute family, in which 2 pairs of players compete with each other. The disposition of the players on the playing mat or board is in a cross, such that the components of the same pair are face to face.

Of the cards in the Spanish deck, only the Ace, the Three, the Jack, the Knight and the King of the four suits are used.

The beggining

The 20 cards are randomly dealt among the 4 players.

The trump is the suit of the last card dealt.

The players then have to declare their intention to play a fifth, a four, a solo or pass.

If a player plays something, his partner does not participate in that hand.

Shifts

The trick turn begins with the player who opens the hand. From the second, the player who won the previous trick opens.

Rules

When the trick is opened, any card the player has can be thrown.

Otherwise, the rules explained below are followed.

Drag is understood as the opening of a trick with a trump.

A card must be played that opens a trick, including a drag. That is, you must throw a card of the same suit as the first roll on that trick, and of higher value (explained later).

If you do not have cards to ride, you are obliged to attend, including a drag. That is, a card of the same suit as the first roll on that trick must be thrown.

If you do not have letters to attend, you are bound to fail. That is, a trump must be rolled. If there is already a bug from another player, you are forced to mount that bug. If you do not have cards to mount a previous failure, you can throw any of those that the player has.

In the event of a prior failure, you are not obliged to mount the card that started the trick, but you are obliged to throw the same suit.

The trick is won by the player who would have thrown the highest value trump, if any. Otherwise (that is, if there are no trumps in that trick), the trick is won by the player who would have thrown the card which, being the suit that opened the trick, is of greater value.

Scoring rules

Aces are worth 11 points. - All three are worth 10 points. - Kings are worth 4 points. - Horses are worth 3 points. - Jacks are worth 2 points. - The player who takes the last trick gets 10 extra points. - The cantes are worth 20 extra points, or 40 if it is a triumph.

A game without anyone playing nothing represents 1 starting point. A single represents 2 starting points. A four represents 4 starting points. A fifth represents 5 starting points.

The game is won by the pair that gets the 11 starting points first. It must be won with exactly 11 points, therefore, if a pair has, for example, 8 points, a fifth or four cannot be played, but only one. The only exception of exceeding 11 points is when the points come from the opposing pair (for losing only one, four ...).

Alone, four and five

After the initial deal, a player can play a Solo if they think they can win the hand without the help of the pair.

If, on the other hand, he plays a fifth, he must win all 5 tricks that make up the hand.

If, instead, he plays a four, he must win at least 4 tricks from that hand.

In Cuatrolas and Quintalas the score and the cantes have no value, since the hand is won according to the tricks won, and not by the points obtained.

In Solos and Hands without playing anything, the hand is won by the pair with the most points. In the event of a tie, the pair holding the hand wins

Songs

Provided that the conditions explained below are met, a cante assumes the sum of 20 extra points if the knight and the king of the same suit are owned, or 40 if the suit is a trump suit.

The conditions that must be met in order to sing are:

• Have the knight and the king of the same suit at the time that you or your partner wins the trick.

• Not be at stake a fourth or fifth.

• Not having already sung in that suit.

• Not having called you or your partner in that same trick.

Introduction

Cuatrola Online is a free-to-play online card game that combines elements of strategy, skill, and luck. It is played with a standard deck of 52 cards, and the objective is to be the first player to get rid of all their cards.

Gameplay

The game is played by two or more players. Each player is dealt a hand of seven cards. The remaining cards are placed in a pile in the center of the table.

The game begins with the player to the left of the dealer. The player can play a card from their hand that matches the suit or number of the card on top of the pile. If the player cannot play a card, they must draw a card from the pile.

If a player plays a 4 of any suit, they can call out "Cuatrola!" and the next player must draw four cards from the pile. If the next player cannot play a card, they must draw four more cards. This continues until a player is able to play a card.

The game continues until one player gets rid of all their cards. The player who gets rid of all their cards first wins the game.

Strategy

There are a number of strategies that can be used to win at Cuatrola Online. Some of the most important strategies include:

* Pay attention to the cards that have been played. This will help you to track which cards are still in the deck and which cards are likely to be played by your opponents.

* Try to play cards that will force your opponents to draw cards. This will give you an advantage by giving you more cards to play with.

* Be careful about playing 4s. Playing a 4 can give you a big advantage, but it can also backfire if you are not careful. If you play a 4 too early, your opponents may be able to draw cards that will help them to win the game.

* Don't be afraid to draw cards. If you cannot play a card, you should draw a card from the pile. This will give you more cards to play with and increase your chances of winning.
