Pinochle is played on Tuesday nights.
The group uses a double deck of Pinochle
cards. Each player is dealt 20 cards at
a table with four players. Bidding goes
around the table until only one player
remains. The player with the highest
bid calls the trump suit. Meld points
are counted and the play begins. Play-
ers must follow suit if they can and if
unable to follow suit they must play a
trump card if they have one.
