Rules of the game. It is believed that this game was the ancestor of Cribbage . The first mention of this game comes from 1589 in England. 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 3 cards each, the remaining deck is placed in the center of the table in a closed form, the top card is removed from the deck and placed under the deck across it in clear form is a trump card. Then begins the rally. The meaning of the game is to make combinations in the game, which give a set of points, eventually up to 31 points, which leads to victory.


There are such combinations for glasses:

1 point - jack in a trump suit;
2 points - jack placed as a trump card during distribution, credited to the rival or rivals of the deliverer (each);
15 points - cards that give a total of 15;
25 points - 3 or more cards that give a total of 25;
31 points - 4 or more cards, which give a total of 31 points;
2 points - 2 cards of the same value;
6 points - 3 cards of the same value;
12 points - 4 cards of the same value;
1 point - 3 or 4 cards of the same suit;
2 points - 3 cards in a row (for example, 6, 7, 8);
4 points - 4 cards in a row (for example, 6, 7, 8, 9);
10 points - 5 or more cards in a row.

It should be noted that an ace stands for a card with a face value of one, since it is lower in value than a deuce.

The first move belongs to the player who sits to the left of the handler. The player looks at his cards and if he sees a winning combination in them, he declares it and puts the cards of this combination in an open view on the table so that other players can see them, if this player does not have a combination, he takes one card from the deck. Then, in either case, the turn moves to the next player clockwise. He does the same, looks at his cards and if there is a combination, then declares it and puts the combination cards openly on the table, if there is no combination, then he takes one card from the deck himself. The player who puts the combination on the table must always have at least three cards on hand, so if he lays out a combination of three cards for example, and no more cards, he takes 3 cards from the deck. Thus, the game continues until one of the players will score 31 points or more. This player becomes the winner.
