A
Queen of clubs (turn-up), Right and left bowers, Queen, knave of diamonds.
D B
9 of clubs, Ace, king of clubs, 10 of diamonds, Ace, king, 7 of diamonds.
King, 7 of spades, 7 of hearts.
C
Score, A C one; B D three; and one game. A plays alone.
_First Trick._--B leads the ace of diamonds, D plays the ten, and A the knave.
_Second Trick._--B leads the seven of diamonds, D trumps with the nine of clubs, and A plays the queen of diamonds.
_Third Trick._--No matter what D leads, A is euchred.
B here makes the coup by recognizing what A must have for a trump-hand, and leads his small and losing diamond, making it imperative for his partner to ruff, thereby putting the lead through A, and establis.h.i.+ng the euchre.
[Transcriber's Note: "turn-up" was misprinted "turn up" in Case VI; this typo has been corrected for this electronic edition.]
