Pinnacolo
Pinnacolo for 4 Players |
|
The arrangements of the Pinnacolo are: |
The Pinnacolo
is played with 2 packs of french cards, in opposite couples. The dealer deals 13 covered
cards for each player. The remainder of the pack is placed in the center and the first
card of the well is uncovered. Each player, in turn, must draw a card from the pack or the
well, insert it between those in his hand, play if it's possible, one or more arrangements
and then discard an uncovered card in the well. Each player must make arrangements to play
on the table or to tie to the arrangements just played by himself or by his partner so to
free himself from the cards. The target of the game is to get the top score through cards
and highest value of the arrangements. If a player has in his hand one or more arrangements, he can close at the first hand as well. The hand is over when a player closes, i.e. he has no more cards in his hand. He must count his and partner card points and subtract card points the partner has in his hand. Also a player can close 'in his hand', making 13 cards such arrangements to play all in one go. If a player close 'in his hand' he doubles the points of the cards he played on the table and get further 200 points. If his partner opened, he doubles his card points on the table, he will have to pay a penalty of 200 points if he didn't. Will wins the game who first will reach 1500 points. |
