I always wanted to make an official something!

The wife and I are in a weekly Euchre league - I played a ton in HS, and we both played a lot in college, but I hadn't played much since I picked up poker and my new brain is now conisdering the game in a different way. Here are some random questions I have been thinking of:

1) How poor should your hand be to pass when your partner deals and turns over the right?

My gut - you have 2 or less trump and no other winners or

1/0 trump and then only one ace that may go

better than that you order it up?


2) now you're the dealer and your partner passed when you turn over the right.

I think you pick it up unless:

you have no other trump or just one with no winners

you have an awesome helper/euching hand - say two aces and maybe a bower and the suits set up well


3) Your parnter deals and turns over the Ac. You have the 9c and the Kc along with some other junk and pass. Partner picks it up. Opp leads the As and you have no spades. Which trump do you throw?

4) you have all nines, tens or queens, no trump, the other team dealt and called it, now you must lead. What do you throw and why?

5) I am going to wait to post more to see if anyone replies and if I can remember I have a thread in house of cards.
