SCORING
2. A game consists of thirty points obtained by tricks alone, exclusive of any points counted for honours, chicane or slam.
3. Every hand is played out, and any points in excess of thirty points necessary for the game are counted.
4. Each trick above six counts two points when spades are trumps, four points when clubs are trumps, six points when diamonds are trumps, eight points when hearts are trumps, and twelve points when there are no trumps.
5. Honours are ace, king, queen, knave and ten of the trump suit; or the aces when no trump is declared.
6. Honours are credited to the original holders and are valued as follows:
| Declaration. | ♠ | ♣ | ♦ | ♥ | No Trumps | |
