You want your side to come out of this trick as well as it can. Which Tarok do you play?
Answer
The Pagat. With the Skus and the Moon already in the trick, your Pagat makes all three Trull cards fall together, so it wins the trick with the Skus and the Moon in it, 10 Card Points. Saving it for the last trick looks tempting, but the XVIII or the VII simply loses here to the Skus.
Rule: If the three Trull cards (Skus, Moon and Pagat) all fall in the same trick, the Pagat wins it.
