Coinche card values table
Updated
One table for every value: trump, plain suit, plus the no-trump and all-trump variants. Keep it open until you've memorised them.
Trump and plain suit (classic game)
| Card | Trump | Plain |
|---|---|---|
| Jack | 20 | 2 |
| Nine | 14 | 0 |
| Ace | 11 | 11 |
| Ten | 10 | 10 |
| King | 4 | 4 |
| Queen | 3 | 3 |
| 8 and 7 | 0 | 0 |
The trump jack and nine are worth far more than elsewhere: that's what makes trump so powerful.
No-trump and all-trump
| Card | No-trump | All-trump |
|---|---|---|
| Ace | 19 | 6 |
| Ten | 10 | 5 |
| King | 4 | 3 |
| Queen | 3 | 1 |
| Jack | 2 | 14 |
| Nine | 0 | 9 |
| 8 and 7 | 0 | 0 |
In no-trump the ace rises to 19. In all-trump every suit plays like trump: the jack is 14 and the nine 9.
The same total in every contract
Whatever the contract, the cards add up to 152 points, plus the 10 de der for the last trick: a deal is always worth 162. In the classic game the trump suit weighs 62 points and each of the other three 30. In no-trump and in all-trump, every suit weighs 38 points. You don't have to recalculate: just remember the rank order. On Coincheur the count adapts to the chosen contract automatically.
To memorise faster, focus on the reversals: at trump the jack outranks the ace and the nine outranks the ten (Jack, 9, Ace, 10, King, Queen, 8, 7), whereas in a plain suit the order goes back to classic (Ace, 10, King, Queen, Jack, 9, 8, 7). In all-trump that same reversal applies to every suit. Once you grasp those two switches, you no longer need the table. The full order, contract by contract, is on coinche card order.
