STANDARD RULES FOR THE GAMES

 

1.    20 Minutes allowed per game; this does not include time waiting for a player that has been booted.  Example: Game has been going on for 10 minutes and player x gets booted.  The game timer stops.  When that player returns if they used 6 min the game still has 10 minutes to continue, but that player only has 4 minutes left for the duration of the tourney for boots.

2.    No loners on 9; this applies to all games unless specified in the particular game.  This is considered a mistake and will be counted against you.

3.    Kibitz off; this is because of having multiple episodes of players not in the league coming to the table and calling out the cards you have.  The TD will check to see that the kibitz is off so please turn it off.  This is a rule that I know many of you do not care for, so the ultimate decision is yours.   We as TD’s will not create a ruckus over it but this is for your protection.  The only time that the Kibitz will stay on is during a reverse tournament where the TD must watch to see that the person making trump has one natural trump.

4.    Bagging and donations; this is part of the game for a lot of players especially those that play aggressive euchre, so be aware that this is allowed in this league and we do not want to hear that people are cheating because of their style of play.

5.    Mistakes or boo boos; you are allowed one mistake per tournament per player; with the second mistake you will be disqualified.  If you’re playing in a partner’s tournament the team is allowed 2 mistakes and the 3rd they will be disqualified.

6.    If you have any questions or comments about these rules please don’t hesitate to let us know.  This is your league and we want you all to be happy.  If enough are for changing a rule to a specific game we will do so.  Please email your ideas to ftweuchre@yahoo.com
