Rules of the game. The rules of this game were published by Jonathan Ling. Obviously, the name of the game was in honor of the statesman of Great Britain. It's possible that Neville Chamberlain loved to play this game. The rules of the game are as follows. If 3 players are playing, then 8, 9 and 10 are removed from the deck, while playing with the four of them, they are not deleted. The first deliverer in the game is determined by lot or at will, in the following games, players dealt cards in turn clockwise. The deck is carefully packed and each player is dealt 13 cards each, and the last card dealt is shown to everyone and given to the player, and the suit of this card becomes a trump suit. In the game there are 2 rank maps: high (in descending order) - T, K, D, B, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2; Beginning with the player to the left of the handler, each player announces in what rank the cards score how many bribes He will take. It is allowed to take bribes only in one rank, either in high or low, but not simultaneously in two. The player who declares that he will take the most bribes, becomes the winner of the bidding. The first move in the game belongs to the player to the left of the handler. This player can go with any of his cards, then the game continues clockwise and each player must put one card of the same suit, if there is no such card, then he can put any card. When all the players lay out one card, they look to who this bribe will belong to. A bribe is assessed according to the rank in which the player who takes most of the bribes: high rank or low rank, declared. The player who takes the cards (bribe) starts the next trick. Thus, the game continues until the players have run out of cards. After that, players count the points. If the player won the auction, took as many bribes as stated, then he gets 5 points, otherwise gets a minus of 5 points. The player who has a jack in bribes gets negative points: for a jack the peak is minus 4 points, for a jack of a tambourine - minus 3 points, for a jack of hearts - minus 2 points, for a jack of clubs - minus one point. In the event that one of the players declares that he will take 13 bribes and take them, then all his opponents receive a minus of 5 points. The player, who in a few games will score 20 points or more, becomes the winner.
