Sasku's strategy

Once upon a time (c. 1980) we had Sasku's ten golden commandments on the wall of our apartment... I won't tell you all the secrets here, but I'll give you one "commandment" for example: The third hand puts the crutch in the bucket! This probably means nothing to many, but it can also mean something to many :) . As for the quick exit of the cross, I would suggest that it is still cognitive, because the probability of hairy distributions is less than 10%, I think, and most of the time there is no point in an empty pile, especially if there is no picture of a pair. :)

I discovered an interesting situation when bidding, for example: I bid, for example, 5, my opponent bids 6, and I in turn bid higher, then they won't let me choose any other trump card than the diamond. Is this some kind of site bug or have I missed something in the rules?

I haven't encountered such a situation, but in a regular game, you can't "take it", so after 6 (to bid again) you still have to get 7 trumps in total, i.e. some number of suit cards pictures (picture); you can make a diamond at any time. In a tournament, there is also an option to "take it", i.e. if the bid is, for example, 6, then you can also bid 6 and the bidding continues...

That's why I put "määä" in the post. It's been like that myself.
