Description
Third Wheel is a trick taking game played with the Decktet for exactly 3 players where 2 players (referred to as Setters) are always set against a rotating dealer (referred to as Dealer). The 2 Setters will get to call trump and whether the hand is played with high or low cards winning tricks, and then the dealer must bid a number of tricks they will take, with the goal being to make their bid exactly. The other players will get the most points for setting the dealer, but the player who took fewer tricks will then score the most points for doing so. —user summary
