Euchred...

[felis_lupus]

I should not play cards when I am tired... brother and I got our butts handed to us by my parents in a cutthroat game of Euchre... mostly because I am tired, and make silly mistakes (like not shooting the moon on a handful of trump and aces. whoops.). Got a good laugh out of it, at least, and it's been a loooong time since we've sat and played a good game of cards.

What is this "Euchre" you speak of? :) New game to teach us? Pleeeeeze?

Oooh... yes. :) If anyone wants to learn... it appears to be a midwest thing, as nearly no one has heard of it out here. It's for 4 people, played with the 9's and higher of a normal deck of cards. It's not difficult to learn, and I've had a good refresher (with butt kicking), so I remember all the rules and little quirks.
