How to play Court Piece (Rang)
Court Piece, also called Rang, Coat Piece or Hokm, is a classic partnership trick-taking game from North India and Pakistan. You play with Meera, who sits opposite you, against Aarav and Kabir. A full 52-card deck is used, with aces high.
- Calling trump. The trump caller gets five cards first and chooses the trump suit from them. The rest of the deck is then dealt, so everyone has 13 cards. The caller changes each hand.
- Play. The trump caller leads the first trick. You must follow suit if you can; if you cannot, you may trump or throw any card. The highest trump wins, or else the highest card of the suit led. The winner leads next.
- Winning a hand. The team that wins 7 or more of the 13 tricks wins the hand and scores 1 point.
- Court! Winning all 13 tricks is a "court" and scores 2 points.
- Game. The first team to 5 points wins.
Tips
- When you call trump, pick the suit where you hold the most cards and the high honours.
- Lead your sure winners (aces, then kings once the ace is gone) before the other side runs out of the suit and trumps them.
- Do not trump a trick your partner is already winning.
