How to Play Euchre
- Euchre is a trick-taking game for four players in two partnerships (partners usually sit across from each other). Use one column per partnership.
- Each deal, players bid for trump. House rules differ on ordering, stick-the-dealer and whether the dealer must accept the up-card — agree before you score.
- Pick how many tricks are played this hand: 5 for the usual 24-card deck (five cards each), 7 for 28 cards, 8 for 32 cards, or 9 for longer-hand variants.
- Set “Makers” to yes for the partnership that called trump, and no for the defenders. Makers score 1 point for winning the minimum majority of tricks, 2 points for taking every trick, or 4 points for taking every trick while going alone.
- If the defenders take a majority of tricks, the makers are Euchred and the defenders score 2 points.
- Set “Went alone” to yes on the makers’ column only. Defenders should leave it set to no.
Tips & Strategy for playing Euchre
- Agree which deck size and ordering rules you use before the first hand so the tricks-in-hand and trump fields stay consistent.
- For each hand, mark exactly one partnership as makers and enter trick totals that add up to the number of tricks selected for that hand.
- When you are makers, leading trump early often pulls opponents’ stopper cards and protects your partner’s winners.
