Clag (card game)
Clag is a trick-taking card game using a standard pack of 52 French-suited playing cards. It is similar to oh hell, and can be played by three to seven players. Clag originated in the Royal Air Force and started as an acronym for Clouds Low Aircraft Grounded.
Clag purportedly originated in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War and started as an acronym for Clouds Low Aircraft Grounded. In this century, the game has been played locally in the US, for example, there have been courses in Jacksonville, Oregon where it is also called Deal with It!.
Clag uses a 52-card, French-suited pack, the cards ranking in their natural order, Aces high.
The game comprises 20 or 22 deals in 3 phases as follows:
The aim is to score the highest number of points by the end of the game.
The cards are shuffled, cut by the player on the dealer's right and the requisite number dealt, one-by-one and clockwise to all the players. The top card from the remaining stock is turned over to reveal the trump suit if required.
In clockwise order beginning with eldest hand (left of dealer), players now nominate how many tricks they will win. The dealer nominates last and must choose a number that, combined with all preceding nominations, does not equal the number of cards dealt. A correct nomination is worth 10 points and each trick is worth a further 2. For example, a player nominating two tricks and succeeding in taking exactly two, scores 14 points. A player failing to take the exact number predicted scores zero.
The complete game consists of twenty or twenty-two rounds each with slightly different rules. In Phase 1, there are 7 deals. In deal 1, only one card is dealt to each player; in deal 2, two are dealt. In successive deals the number of cards dealt increases by one each time up to seven cards.
