Ah Gerry, With a hand as weak as this one, I would get rid of the 9C and hope the KD can win me a trick (about 12% of the time). With weak hands I like to...
Unfortunately, the I couldn't figure out how to get the simulator to do the following... 1. Change which card the computer would discard This is an option I...
Upon further review... Yeah, I'll buy that. And it has nothing to do with the fact that EXACTLY the same hand happened to me last night - I had RT9 and could...
A sign of a good euchre player is one who is euchred more often than most other players while going alone. (To be candid, it can also be the sign of a poor...
I like the analysis. But what worries me with this hand is that you risk taking a euchre at the dealer's spot. You've 'almost' conceded the game at that...
... I'm thinking the same. The dealer has a 'next' call covered. I wonder how many loners the opps would score jumping the fence from 1st seat. I'd give 100...

Quite common. Although, I believe it to be a benefit for your opponents to think you are an idiot euchre player. It hurts more when you lose to someone who...
Getting euchred on a loner is not really a big deal, although I play with some who think getting euchred period is terrible. These people are not good players....
Agreed, although I wouldn't go alone on next no matter what (you might get 2 points instead of losing the game). I am a firm believer that you play the score ...
Interesting ... the simulator gets euchre (if score if 0-0) about 16% of the time which is 1 hand in 6. I guess that is a little over once a game. I know my...
From a mathematical standpoint you could make a case that the maximum aggressiveness will be getting euchred 1 hand in every 3 that you play. In this case,...
You touched a good point. Sometimes I can be on a streak, and whatever I do I can not loose, and get a couple of 4 point loners in a game. Surely I will be...
Agreed ... I think I would go alone on this hand whenever I had 6 or less points. Rule of Thumb... If it is unlikely your partner can help, forget him ... go...

The thing that is wrong with the equation I put forth is that it ignores too many variables. Expectation really needs to include things like the following... ...

hi all, I've submiited the following comment to perry's Euchre Universe under "euchre discards" and thought that posting it here may get more feedback. Is my...

... Perry made an excellent point. Pay attention to habits! (of everyone at the table) And, i'm with you, Nukem. While sometimes the cards may dictate a 'next'...
The player has enough (say JJAK, K offsuit), and stupidly neglects to play alone at a score begging for the loner (like down 6-2). Giving them 1 instead of 2...
I definitely agree. JJX or JAK, keep the AK. JKT or less, keep the AA. JKQ, I would keep the AK if off color. If the AK is next, I would keep the across A and...
It seems reasonable that a Green lead is better than a Next when dealer makes trump. All I suggested in the post was that there are opponents who always lead...

About going alone with 8 pts ... you played with in the rules of the game. I see no problem here. It is a rationalization for people who lose to try to find...
I'll assume most here at ES play the majority of their euchre online. But, what would you think of not being able to "make trump with no trump" in a...
