Re: Don't argue with success - Natty's column

btw, if I show up to any of these be thar tournaments, I won't take it personal
if my partner here calls a loner stop. I know I'm outnumbered as far as my
belief of not calling them. I'll try not to take my evening nap tomorrow and I
hope I don't fall asleep watching tv. Like I said before, I'll get my energy
back in the fall.zzzzzz--- In EuchreScience@yahoogroups.com, "Amy"

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
losing the game. Also, 82% of the time I'm in 3rd sitting with the left guarded

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.
