Four-handed All Fours

Four-handed All Fours is a four player card game.

Method of play

The players cut to decide who shall be partners; the two highest playing against the two lowest, and facing each other, as at Whist. The right to the first deal is decided, by the cut, the highest dealing. Afterwards each player deals in rotation. The dealer and the elder hand alone look at their cards in the first instance, the option of begging resting with the latter. The other two players must not take up their cards till the dealer has decided whether he will "give one" or "run the cards" for a new trump. The players play in succession as at Whist, four cards constituting a trick. In other respects, the play is the same as in the two-handed All Fours.
