Tute
Tute (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈtute] ⓘ) is a trick-taking card game of the ace–ten family for two to four players. Originating in Italy, where it was known as tutti, during the 19th century the game spread in Spain, becoming one of the most popular card games in the country. The name of the game was later modified by Spanish speakers, who started calling the game tute. The game is played with a deck of traditional Spanish playing cards, or naipes, that is very similar to the Italian 40-card deck.
The classic version of the game is two-player tute, while the most played is tute in pairs, where four players form two teams. The object of the game is to score the most points in the baza (a pile next to a player that contains the cards that the player gets after winning a trick) and by declarations (holding certain combinations of cards). Due to its wide popularity, several variations of the game exist.
Tute originated in Italy. The game belongs to the same family as Brisca and has similar rules of play and final count of points. The name of the game originated from the Italian word tutti (all), the declaration that a player announces when holding the four kings,or four Jacks. The game spread to Spain during the 19th century, brought back by Spanish troops who returned from missions in Italy. As the popularity of the game increased, its name was modified over time by Spanish speakers, who started calling the game tute. The game became one of the most popular in Spain, leading to the later appearance of regional variations of the game. In Mexico, the game was known as tuti.
The game is played with a Spanish deck of cards, which is divided into four suits: Oros (coins), Espadas (swords), Copas (cups) and Bastos (batons). The 8s and 9s of each suit are excluded, leaving forty cards in the deck. The object of the game is to score the most points in the baza and from declarations (see Scoring below).
This variation of tute is called "tute habanero". Each player is dealt eight cards and the next is turned for trump. The upcard is placed perpendicular and beneath the stock.
The non-dealer leads any card to the first trick. The second player must follow suit and head the trick if possible. If the second player is void in the led suit, but has one or more trump cards, he must play a trump. Only if the second player has no cards of the led suit and no trumps, may any other card be played. The trick is won by the higher trump or, if no trumps are played, the higher card of the led suit.
The winning player takes both cards of the trick, and places them face down in separate pile on the table, called the baza. These cards remain out of play until scores are calculated at the end of the round.
The winner of the trick takes the first card from the stock, and the loser the second. The trick winner may then make any announcements before leading to the next trick. Thus, until the stock runs out, so that, until that point, they each hold eight cards at the start of every trick. When the trump upcard is higher than a 7 (Ace, Three, King, Knight, or Knave), the player that holds the 7 of trumps may able exchange it for the upcard. The 7, and cards of lesser value (6, 5, and 4), may later be exchanged only by a 2. The trump exchanges are allowed anytime in the game until only two cards remain in the stock.
