Purpose of the game: to score 61 points or more first.
Rules of the game. The first deliverer is determined by a lot, then the players take the cards in turn. The deck is carefully shuffled, removed and each player is dealt 4 cards one card at a time. The top card, the remaining deck is a trump card. The first move is made by the handler's opponent or the player who is to his left. At repeated surrenders the first player who took the last bribe goes first. A player can walk from one of his cards or from two or three or four cards of the same suit, the opponent must put as many cards as the cards go to him. If a player walks from two cards, then the opponent is obliged to put two cards, if he walks from three cards, he is obliged to put 3 cards, if he walks from four cards, he is obliged to put 4 cards. A bribe is taken by the player whose cards will be older provided that he is played in a suit, or if the trump card interrupts a non-consecutive card. After taking a bribe, players collect cards to four from the deck. The first takes the player who took the bribe, he also owns the right of the first move in the next trick. The player who scores 61 points or more wins. If the player has a "borax" (4 cards trumps suit), then he wins immediately regardless of the points scored, if the player was 4 conspicuous cards of the same suit "molodka" or "letter" or a combination of three aces - "Moscow" , Or a combination of four aces - "4 end", then this player goes first regardless of whose first move. If a player accidentally announces the end of the game, but does not gain 61 points, then he is considered a loser. The player who took the cards not in turn is also considered a loser. If a player takes an extra card, he is also considered a loser. By agreement, players can play with open cards or open cards can be played by one player and the other closed, for which the player who plays with open cards is given several compensation points.
Note. I would like to note the following, that in different companies they interpret different combinations in different ways. Bura (burkozel) is always considered the highest combination and for it victory is immediately given. Molodka, Moscow and 4 extremities can be in different sequences according to seniority, depending on how it is customary to play in a particular company. It would be more logical from my point of view to make the senior combination after the Boer, the 4th end, then the hummock and the younger Moscow. To this game, you can apply all those varieties that are used in the game Bura .

Strategy games

If you have one or two trump cards on your hands, you need to protect them so that you can catch the third and then the fourth in the purchase and make a "borax".
If the opponent repeatedly discards the cardholder, then he has 3 trumps and he catches the fourth, then it is necessary to intercept the move and try to go with two or three cards of the same suit.
Watch carefully for the opponent's cards.
Read your glasses carefully and your opponent's glasses carefully.
Watch carefully for the opponent's cards being bought, since he can simulate taking a card, and when you take the next card, he can blame you for someone else's rise, so the game is lost.
