Lunch Time Tichuers: February 2007 Archives

Wow. I think that this constitutes a new record of "Most one-sided distribution, evar!" I know that I have complained before about one team having all of the cards. Well, now the granularity of that statement has increased to one person having all of the cards -- Adam. I now have proof that Jon is a pretty bad person to team up with in Tichu...

When Adam went into his Grand-Tichu death spiral, Ed first passed him an Ace instead of the Phoenix. What was amusing was the second Grand-Tichu call. This time Ed passed Adam the Phoenix instead of the Ace. So when I played my King-high straight, Ed could have gone over it if he would have kept that Phoenix. This allowed me to set Adam. My dilemma during the pass was: should I pass Jon an Ace or a 9? I decided that my hand was not so great otherwise, so I passed him that Ace on the top of my straight.
