Without looking at the cards a player can call a throw down and expose their hand. Minimum Knock Score, could be 17-21, for example. If you run out of pennies you are out of the game. If a player calls 31 all players puts a penny in the kitty (including the knocker). If a player loses a life, they put a penny in the kitty (and if you lose two lives you put two pennies in the kitty). Typically, Scat is played with each player having 3 pennies. SCORINGĪ hand consists of three cards, you may add up three cards of the same suit to determine your score. Card Ranks In Skat, the typical card rankings are in the following order: Jacks, Aces, 10s, Kings, Queens, 9s, 8s, 7s. If you have a 52-card Anglo American deck, you can adapt it by removing the 1-6 cards. The game continues until one player remains. Skat is designed to play with three players, and uses a 32-card French-style deck. If you lose while you are out of money (“on the dole,” “on welfare,” “on the county”), you are out of the game. A player can declare 31 even if another player has knocked. If a player reaches 31, they immediately show their cards and claim their victory! All other players lose. In the event there is a tie for the lowest score between two players (neither of which were the knocker), they both lose a life. However, if the knocker has the lowest score they lose two lives. The player who has the lowest hand loses a life. If the knocker ties with another player(s) for lowest hand, the other player(s) loses a life and the knocker is saved. Players decide which is their ‘point suit’ and totals up the value of their cards within that suit. At the beginning of each round, or 'deal', one player becomes declarer and the other two players become the defending team. Once the player to the right of the knocker discards, players reveal their cards. Skat is a game for three players, who are known as forehand, middlehand and rearhand, rearhand also being the dealer ( see picture ). If on your turn you believe your hand to be high enough to beat at least one opponent you may knock. If you choose to knock your turn ends and you stick with your present hand. Cards drawn from the top of the deck (or stock), however, may be discarded in the same turn. You are not permitted to draw the top card from the discard and then immediately discard it.
