7.—The dealer, taking miss against one player only, must declare before doing so, whether he play for himself or the pool. In the latter case he cannot be looed; but the proceeds of any trick he may make are left in the pool, to abide the result of the next hand.
8.—If no one declares to play, the dealer is entitled to the pool.
9.—A player having the lead, and holding the ace of trumps (or king, ace being turned up), is bound to lead it.
10.—A player having the lead, and holding two trumps, is bound to lead one of them.
11.—A player having the lead, and holding two trumps, other than in sequence or of equal value, is bound (when there are two players only), to lead the highest.
12.—Every player is bound to follow suit if able to do so.
13.—Every player is bound to head the trick if able to do so.
14.—Every player winning a trick, and still holding one or more trumps, is bound to lead a trump.
Any player committing any infractions of Laws 9,
10, 11, 12, 13, or 14, must leave in the pool any tricks he may make, and forfeit to the pool four times the amount of a single.
