Your group plays Kontra and the capture bonuses. P1, the Forehand, plays the Call, calls the King of Hearts and announces the Trull. You are P3, and you hold the Pagat.

You kontra only an item you can be sure must fail. Do you say Kontra on the Trull?
Answer
No Kontra. Every other Tarok beats the Pagat, so it lands in your side’s pile only if your side wins the trick you play it to, and you cannot be sure of that. Holding a Trull card proves the Trull fails only when it is the Skus.
Rule: A player who does not believe a contract or an announced bonus will succeed says Kontra, and it pays double (×2).
