Playing our handed, three times in a month I picked with both red queens, Ace of D and J of Hearts. Got beat every single time, usually only taking one trick or two max. Damn red queens are a bitch. You get yelled at if you mauer, but you have no guaranteed trick playing the red Q's.Originally Posted by FavreChild
BTW, usually play quarters [25/50/75] but have on occassion played Dollars [1,2,3] Dollars with crack.re-crack, double bump, blitzers can get expensive..

I haven't played Sheepshead in like 10 years. I think we would start out playing that and then switch to "President" (also called Asshole) because we needed something that required little thought...
Played a ton of "President".Originally Posted by GBMichele

Partial, any chance you meant to post that in the "favorite quote" thread?
maybe he has one of those old fashioned dispensing bubblers?
Played with a guy who always picked on crap and always called my ace. We called this guy a "pick 'n shitter"
This guy would also lead his short suit to the Picker. Whattan idiot.
best part was picking a pinch light and finding a way to win.
Played for luch money and later for toll money (traveling back from Wausau to Chicago)

I hate the game. Everyone I played with growing up - grandparents, parents, siblings, relatives - would rip me a new one if I played the wrong card. I stopped playing when I was old enough to say "no".
