OK. I'm 3rd and hold K9c, AKd, Jh. Upcard is Jc. I don't remember the score, so let's say it is 6 dealing, 9 us (because I remember fearing the loner since it...
Questions: May I assume dealer is the maker? Not that it made a difference but did 4th really under-trump your King on trick 3? If you were up 9-6 and an...
Yes ... .you should have made the assumption you partner has the AC. Aside: The more interesting question is....what should the dealer have lead to start the...

Dealer I think played the spade and kept the club. My error on the recounting. And yes, dealer was maker. ... your King on trick 3? ... with a Jack up, I...

I often play with conservative players (non-aggressive bidders, not Republicans). They have this habit of ordering up a great hand but not going alone when...
I bid more conservatively against conservative bidders. My reasoning would be 2 fold: 1) It is more likely the opposition has a good hand (euchre hand) 2) I...
I also play more conservatively against conservative players. Naming trump for your p just doesn't work in this case. I call for my hand, not my p's. However,...
... Naming ... hand, ... I think if you are a solid trump making player you never need to adjust calling very much. A slightly reduced agressiveness making...
Sword, Is it a testable notion in the Euchre Simulator? That is, could you adjust one team's strategy such that they never order up a loner and see how that ...
... I think I would find something else to do. Like maybe go to the dentist. I enjoy a good aggressive game where everyone is calling. What fun is it if all...
The techical answer is Yes.. I think I could. But, I don't think I could answer what I believe to be your ultimate question. I think you are trying to...
I suppose just knowing that loners are called from the first seat 2% of the time is an indication of the answer. It would be interesting to see the breakdown...
... I could answer what I believe to be your ultimate question. I think you are trying to justify playing differently against conservative (timid) players....
Sorry...re: the team that didn't go alone from 1st/3rd seat in first round would win 49-51 times. I meant to say the team that would never call a loner from...
Hi Joe, ... It depends on the maker. Did you order, or did dealer pick it up? If you ordered, I most certainly would not assume 1st held Ac. If dealer picked...

Dealer picked up the R and 1st led the L. I still should not have trumped P's ace with the K on trick 3 in case dealer still has the At. Or would playing my K...
