Spoke to Claude. He told me of two new game ideas.


DIAMOND CLUB - Use standard deck for 4 - strip out 2's for other nos. to make an equal deal. 2 of diamonds is always kept in. Player with 2 of diamonds plays it first. Players in turn must either follow suit either higher or lower, or play a higher card of the next suit sequence - D - C - H - S - etc. When a p[layer can no longer play he is out of the game but picks up all cards played so far.  <s>Continue</s> His remaining cards are shuffled and dealt out to remaining players. The last player in gets his own remaining cards and the remaining cards of the p[layer to just go out. Cards count 1 point each except diamonds which count 10. As a possible alternate rule - a player must follow suit if able but can choose to go out instead of switching suits if he wishes.
