Let me explain this further; obviously all the trump wasn't in my hand, just
both jacks, offsuit ace & an offsuit ace/K, the dealer had the rest so I suppose
in this situation, either way we would be out 2 points because I would order and
I might go alone, but usually anytime my partners call loner stops, we end up

now, I'm not there to chat, buttttt, score was 7-7, my partner in first ordered
up a "loner stop", (all the trump was in my hand so he stopped my loner), they
got 2, score now 7-9, they called on the last hand & game over. Before I left, I
was so upset I told my partner "This is why I don't call loner stops" and flew
away. I've made up my mind after playing some ungodly amount of yahoo euchre, I
will never order up a loner stop. I've lost more games this exact way than with
loners.
