How many Card Points did P1 capture?
Answer
44. Set aside the 10
, the 1
and the 1
, which are empty: a base count of 21, and the pips add 23, so the Solo falls one Card Point short. 47 counts the three empty cards, and 23 or 21 stops after one of the two steps.

Add the pips: that is your pip count. Together the two counts are your Card Points.
