Tichu and Tex-Mex 07/15/2007

Traci and John

Wow, it has been almost a month since I have last played Tichu. Unfortunately, there were six people present to play a four player game. The only problem that I noticed was a minor one of not trying to feed point cards to the trick that Dragon takes. Here is a scenario: your partner goes out first and you are left with one other person. You know that the Dragon has not been played. So, on single card tricks, you play a King. This will force a remaining ace out of your opponent’s hand. Or, if your opponent plays the Dragon, it will go to your partner.
