euchre

Probably roughed it from the mean streets of Royal Oak, loitering the Farmer Jacks parking lot, gambling on hands of Euchre with your Windsor loonies.

To make a euchre analogy - you don't pass on a biddable hand, and you don't waste your trump cards.

My university has an infamous project of implementing Euchre (another trick-taking game) in C++ in one of the early programming courses.

Bridge is to Euchre as Chess is to not just Checkers but Tic Tac Toe.

It's up there with Euchre for turning old people into unhinged gamers, and I absolutely love it for that.

I love spades and euchre, finally got around to bridge and didn't want to go back.

I played euchre with my neighbors last week (though admittedly it isn’t regularly scheduled).

Rummy, whist, euchre, and chess all have many variants.

If you've played whist and euchre you're almost already there - just play bid whist a bit and then stepping up to bridge isn't hard at all.

How does it differ from, say, Euchre or Kaiser?

I've never played bridge, but euchre is super-popular around here.

After a few months of hesitation I’ve gotten some of my friends into playing simple games like euchre and hearts and the quality of our time together has gone up significantly.

I'm particularly impressed by your choice of "up there with Euchre" as a metaphor to explain Crokinole.

It doesn't always work perfectly, but in particular I play a euchre game on my phone that frequently asks me to "pay X to play with no ads" and every time I think "What ads?" That said, sometimes I pay to support the developer if I like the game.

The Crew if you like trick-taking card games, it's a co-op variant to games like Bridge or Euchre.

Everything seemed to be either Rummy-family games around set collecting, or trick-taking games that might as well have been Hearts or Euchre.

In my day in the US midwest, it was Euchre.
