Description
This game is played with a standard deck of cards stripped down to AKQJT987 plus one Joker. Eleven tricks are played, hence one player will win either the middling number of tricks, or, if two win the same number, a unique number of tricks. That player is designated Hamlet. A new trump suit and a scoring multiplier (whether it is more desirable "to be or not to be" Hamlet) are decided at the start of each round.
