SETUP

To set up for Trjámann you must first remove all the twos from a standard 52 card deck. After this, the remaining deck is shuffled and dealt. The twos are kept to the side to signify what suite is trump for the game.

To deal hands, the dealer will hand each player 16 cards dealt in sections of 4 cards each. After each player receives their hand the remaining 4 cards are placed face down in the center of all players. These 4 cards are called the Manni and will be used later.

Contracts

Once the hands have been dealt trump is chosen. In Trjámann, the player to the dealer’s left will choose a contract to play under. Each player must choose each of the contracts once during the game. There will be a total of 12 rounds of play.

The contracts include Nullo, Grand, Spades, and Other. In Nullo, players will try to avoid winning tricks and there will be no trumps for the round.  For Grand, players will try to win tricks but there is still no trump suit. In Spades, the goal is to win tricks and the trump suit is spades. In Other, the goal is to win tricks and the trump suit is chosen by the player to the dealer’s left.

In some games, players are not allowed to pick spades in the other contract. Make sure all players agree one way or the other before the game starts.

GAMEPLAY

After trump is determined the player at the dealer’s left decides if they would prefer to keep their hand or exchange with the Trjámann. If they choose to exchange they may discard cards from their hand to draw from the Manni. No other players may exchange.

Once the exchanging of cards is finished the player to the dealer’s left leads the first trick. Players must always try to follow suit if possible but if not may play any card they desire. Hands are won by the player with the highest trump, or if no trumps exist then the highest cards of the suit led with.

The winner of the hand will lead the next hand and that continues until all cards have been played out of hands.
