INTRODUCTION OF PIP PIP

Pip Pip is an old English trick taking party game that is known for getting a little rowdy.  Players take turns playing cards with the hope of collecting as many 2’s, Aces, and face cards as possible.  Keep an eye on your hand because if you get a king and queen of the same suit, you get to yell “Pip Pip” and change the suit.

THE CARDS & THE DEAL

Pip Pip requires the use of two 52 card decks.  To decide who must deal first and be the scorekeeper, have each player take a card from the deck.  The player with the lowest card must deal first and keep score.

To determine the trump suit for each round, the dealer should cut the deck and expose a card.  That card’s suit becomes trump for the round (at least in the beginning).

The dealer should shuffle the cards thoroughly and dole out seven cards to each player one at a time.  The rest of the cards are placed in the center of the table as the draw pile. 토토사이트추천

THE PLAY

During each round, players are trying to win tricks that have 2’s, Aces, and face cards. 

Play begins with the player to the left of the dealer.  They choose a card from their hand and play it to the center of the table.  Play then passes to the next player on the left.  Each player takes a turn choosing a card from their hand to add to the pile.  This pile forms a trick.  When playing a card to the trick, the following players must play a card in the same suit as the the card that was led.  If they are unable to follow suit, they may play any card from their hand.  The player who played the highest card in the suit that was led or the highest trump card takes the trick.  In the event that two identical cards are played, whoever played the card second wins the trick.

Every time someone plays a card to the trick, that player immediately draws a card from the draw pile.
