Euchre: Lead trump if you called it #205

Open antross opened 1 year ago

antross commented 1 year ago

We have reports of the bots not leading trump even if they called it. I think this can happen if they don't have the high Jack, but are holding an off-suit Ace. Unless the bot is short on trump (e.g. two or less), leading a low trump first is a better choice.

The bots have got to start leading trump before aces in euchre, especially when they don't have the R. Pull trump to set up the aces. Instead, they're worried about where the R is and let little trump kill their aces without resolving where the R is.

(1) Lead should always be trump before aces. Leading it out this way is begging to lose the ace to a small trump.
