1. SCORING: If the high bidder fails to make the bid (his team's total meld plus trick points is less than the bid), the bid amount is subtracted from the team score.
2. The game consists of a repeating sequence of bidding (for the right to name the trump suit and optionally to pass cards), melding, and trick-taking.
3. Players score points by melding various card combinations and by taking tricks.
4. Pinochle (queen of spades and jack of diamonds) is 4 points, or 30 points for double pinochle (two of each).
5. MELDING: Players get points by showing various card combinations.
6. If you prefer, our other pinochle app with no advertising, Pinochle Gold, has more card backs and tabletops to choose from, and adds support for several languages.
7. Pinochle is a card game played with a 48- or 80-card deck of 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings and aces.
8. High bidder names the trump suit for the hand and optionally exchanges cards with her partner.
9. BIDDING: Each player bids the number of points she thinks she can make with her hand.
10. TRICKS: Play begins with the high bidder, and proceeds around the table to the left, 4 cards per trick.
11. A run (or straight) in the trump suit is worth 15 points.
