SuecaCard

Three decisions. You are at the table.

Tap a card and see why it works. These short challenges run here, without an account. They are practice situations, not an online match.

Follow suit

Hearts were led; spades are trumps. You hold one heart. Which card must you play?

See the explanation

You must play the 2 of hearts. Having a trump does not let you ignore a suit you can follow.

Find the winning card

These four cards make one trick. Hearts were led; clubs are trumps. Which card wins?

See the explanation

The 7 of hearts wins. The seven beats the king and jack of the same suit; the ace of spades is neither a heart nor a trump.

Use your trump

A rival leads the ace of hearts. You have no hearts and spades are trumps. Which card wins this two-card comparison?

See the explanation

The 2 of spades wins: any trump beats a non-trump. Without hearts, any of your cards would be legal, but only this one wins here.

A classic with its own rhythm.

Sit opposite your partner

Four players form two fixed teams. Everyone receives ten cards from a French-suited deck with no 8s, 9s or 10s.

Follow the suit

Play the suit led if you have it. If you do not, any card is legal: you may trump or discard. There is no obligation to beat the previous card.

Let trumps decide

A revealed card from the dealer’s hand sets trumps. The highest trump wins; without a trump, the highest card of the suit led wins. The winner leads next.

Win points, not just tricks

Your pair needs more than 60 of the 120 card points. SuecaCard uses Portuguese rules: a 60–60 tie awards neither team a match point, with no carry-over. The default match target is 4; custom targets run from 1 to 100.

The seven changes everything.

Strongest to weakest: A · 7 · K · J · Q · 6 · 5 · 4 · 3 · 2. The seven is the manilha; the jack beats the queen. Low cards score zero.

120 points alone earn 2 match points. To earn 4 you must win all ten tricks, including those containing only zero-point cards.

Before the first deal

Is Sueca the same as Bisca?

No. Sueca uses four players in fixed pairs, ten cards each and an obligation to follow suit. BriscaCard follows Brisca rules; local Bisca rules can differ.

Can I play a full Sueca match on this website?

This page offers interactive practice and rules. Full matches belong to the SuecaCard app; the website does not connect these challenges to an online room.

How much is the seven worth?

Ten card points. Only the ace is stronger in the same suit, and it is worth eleven points.
