Bob Abbott showed letter from a mensa member with a game called <u>DOYLE'S FOLLY</u>. For 3 players it is played with a regular 52 card deck. These are dealt out; it doesn't matter that it is uneven. Play is in tricks. The highest card of <s>trick</s> suit led wins trick and picks up all the cards. | Bob Abbott showed letter from a mensa member with a game called <u>DOYLE'S FOLLY</u>.

The highest card of <s>trick</s> suit led wins trick and picks up all the cards. He then leads to next trick which must be another suit. | ||
Object is to get rid of cards. First to get rid of cards wins (I am pretty sure that this is so - altho it is possible that play continues until only one player has cards left - but probably not). | |||
Since the only way to get rid of an Ace is to put it on a trick when you are out of a suit, if one player is dealt all four aces there is a re-deal. | |||
For 4 hand see 8/10. | |||
