Hi Joe, ... I'd say you're looking at a rare circumstance. Something as simple as the the Kh and Qh being reversed in 2nd and 3rd's hands will change...
... (and ... Hi Rob, I tend to agree with your choice here, but I think it is important to point out that this call should depend on the style of play of your...
... maker ... I would have ordered up the queen from second chair. (Risky, but at that score, who cares?) I would not have picked it up from fourth. I would...
Patricia, It played out originally just like you laid out and 3rd scores her point. It was Hoyle Cards (wife needed the phone so Yahoo was out) so I hit ...
In this case I'd call diamonds. Why? Because I've been keeping mental track of when next works and when not. Have been doing this for several months now....
Hi Gerry, ... I agree with Natty in this column. But this principle usually applies to playing ANY suit. I'm a firm believer in leading trump once, but unless...
... What makes "Lead trump only once" a special maxim for "next" -- and also for a call "across" by the dealer's partner -- is that the rationale for calling...
Enter your vote today! A new poll has been created for the EuchreScience group: You are dealer with the Qc turned up and the Score is: 0-0. You hold ...

There is no correct answer to choose in the new poll: The dealer cannot pass (he can pick up the card or he can turn it down). The dealer cannot order (he can...
I would be passing because its 0-0. If it goes 4-0, no big deal it is early. No need to give them an unessary 2 points. They still have to earn their loner...
Ed, AKT off-color, KQt can likely take 2 tricks. You have -0- defense against next. If you can come back from 4-0, you can come back from 2-0 twice as...
P.S. Without trying to sound too condescending, I was trying to find a hand that would test the defensive skills of this group... I guess I found it! ...
Hi all, when I 1st posted this poll I already knew through experience that it is a better offensive call than it looks, but is primarily is a defensive call. I...

Hi Joe, ... I'm not so sure I agree (although Ron's results have me rethinking it). I'd guess you can score one of your trump, and that's about it. That ace...
Hi Ace, ... I, too, originally voted to pass. But the more I consider it, the more I believe passing is wrong. Your results seem very reasonable to me. In 34...
How do you evaluate how many points a hand scores? 1st: JQh, Jc, Qd, Ts 2nd: Th, Ac, Jd, Q9s 3rd: AKh, JKs, 9d 4th: KQc, AKTd 1st leads Qd? 4th plays Qc. 4th...
Ace, I have no idea how your playing the hand, or what you're playing, but if you got euchred 50 % of the time, then you're trying to lose. I just played it...
Hi Ace, ... Hmmm. What you're not considering is the 50% of the time you succeed. Down 1-0 34 times is -34. Down 2-0 50% of the time (and up 1-0 the other...
Ok, this is kind of sad but I've noticed myself doing something while playing on-line that I don't think I would do as readily when playing face to face. When...
No, I don't fear any reprisials. Ed P.S. Where is my last post, did it get moderated? I can't see why it would. ... while playing on-line that I don't think I...
That when you are in the lab, that the dealer is picking up and seat two has not ordered. Also from what this poll originally showed and the hands that...
Nope. You're not being moderated. Yahoo seems to be messing with us. I'm just now getting emails delivered to my in box that were posted yesterday. If I...
Yahoo: I usually just quote them my hand on the spot and leave after the game if it is testy enough. I ordered up a 9 from 2nd while holding RQ, weaksuit A, x,...
