Which card puts the most Card Points into the team's pile with no risk?
Answer
The K
. The Dapper has played, and P4’s XX beats his XVII; everyone still to play is on the team, so the trick is the team’s. You have no Tarok, so you may play any card: butter the trick with the King’s 4 pips. Saving the K for later is the trap: somebody is almost always out of Diamonds, and the King gets trumped.
