Which six do you keep?
Reveal answer
Answer
Skus, XX, XVII, XIV, XI, K
. You had eight Taroks to choose from, and it is tempting to discard the King and keep six Taroks. You may not: Kings may never be discarded. So the K
stays, the other five places go to your five highest Taroks (Skus, XX, XVII, XIV, XI), and VIII, V and II go with the nine other color cards. That leaves you with three Taroks from the XV up, the Skus, the XX and the XVII, the number the rebuild aims for, and it leaves you void in Spades, Diamonds and Clubs. The Q
, the C
and the J
among your discards still count in your pile at the end, 6 pips without a trick.
