Your table plays the Kontra house rule. P1 has bid Rufer and called a King. Before the first card falls, you hold: III, VI, Q♦, C♠, J♣, 2♥, 3♦, 4♦, 8♣, 9♠, 7♠, 10♣.
Do you Kontra?

Answer
Hold your Kontra. Two low Taroks, no big Taroks, no King: the 12-point count reads a bare 2, and nothing here tells you the Rufer is in trouble. Kontra doubles your loss right alongside your win, so it wants a real reason, your own strength or a clear read on the table, not a reflex. Save the double for a hand that actually earns it.
