INTRODUCTION OF SWEDISH CHICAGO

Swedish Chicago, simply known as Chicago in Sweden, is a game that combines both hand building and trick taking.  Each round, players work through three phases trying to build the best poker hand possible.  On the third phase, players use the cards they have in their hand to play tricks.  Whoever takes the final trick earns points. 

THE CARDS & THE DEAL

Swedish Chicago is played with a standard 52 card deck.  In order to determine the first dealer and scorekeeper, each player should take a card from the deck.  Whoever has the lowest card will be the first dealer and the scorekeeper.

Shuffle the cards and deal five cards to each player.

THE PLAY

A round of Swedish Chicago has three phases.  During these phases, players are trying to build the best poker hand possible.  During the third phase, players are also trying to take tricks. 메이저사이트

PHASE ONE

After dealing five cards to each player, go around the circle and allow players to exchange as many cards as they wish one time.  For example, Player 1 exchanges three of their cards for three new ones.  The dealer takes the cards and forms a discard pile face down and gives Player 1 three new cards.  A player does not have to exchange any cards if they do not want to.  They can simply say pass.

Once each player has had to the opportunity to exchange cards, it is time to find out who has the best hand.  Again, starting with the player on the left side of the dealer, each player may declare the poker hand they have built as long as it is a higher hand then the previously declared one.  For example, player 1 might say, “two pairs.”  Player 2 must have two pairs or better in order to declare their hand.  In the event of a tie, each player would declare which cards their hands are made of one at a time.  For example, if two players both have flushes, they would have to compare their flushes one card at a time to decide who has the highest flush.  If Player 1 had a flush with a 9 being the highest card, and Player 2 had a flush with the Queen being the highest card, Player 2 would win the points. If two or more players have the exact same hand, no points are earned for this phase.  If no one has a poker hand to declare, no points are earned for this phase.
