Confusion in rules #5

Open shakdwipeea opened 5 years ago

shakdwipeea commented 5 years ago 
If you hold no cards of the suit that is led, it is illegal to discard the Jack of a suit that has not yet been led.  It is however, legal to trump with the Jack of trumps even if trumps have not yet been led.

even if trumps have not yet been led

How does this matter ?

@Amritashu Some clarifications required

Consider the trump being Hearts. The game of Spades is being led, I do not have spades but can certainly see that my partner is winning the hand, I see that I have lot of Clubs, so when clubs will be led I have a chance of losing the hand because someone might use trump on that hand. So I decide to pass the jack of Clubs in this hand itself, so that I can get three points which I would have otherwise lost.(This is what I am saying as illegal). You can pass 9 and below but not Jack, until a game of that suit has not been led. Second situation, Consider a hand of clubs being led, when my chance comes, I do not have any clubs, so i decide to open the trump, which is hearts. I see that I have only the Jack of Hearts, in this case I will have to use the Jack of hearts, even though the rule says I cannot pass a Jack without its deck being led.

Got it. Thanks

Not implementing right now. Implementation details: This would require tracking all the suits that has been led and then add this check to the legal-card? function which can invalidate the card being played and ask the user again.

Can be used in the next version. Make a note. Thanks.
