You want to lose this trick. Which card is sure to lose it?
Answer
The J
. You saw the K
go into your opponent’s hand, so they must follow Diamonds, and in the Dodge Round the Rising Rule makes them beat your card when they can: the K
always can. The 8
wins if the 7
on their pile is their only Spade, and the 2
wins if the 4
is their only Heart.
Rule: A revealed Tarok or King goes straight into your hand, and you reveal the pile’s next card at once.
