How to play Mendikot
Mendikot (Mendi Coat) is a four-player partnership game from India played with a full 52-card deck: you and North versus West and East. The aim is to capture the tens.
Trump (cut hukum)
There is no trump at the start. The first time a player cannot follow suit, the card they play decides the trump suit for the rest of the hand — and that card counts as a trump in that trick.
Play
- Each player gets 13 cards. The player left of the dealer leads; you must follow suit if you can.
- The highest trump wins the trick, otherwise the highest card of the suit led (Ace is high).
Winning a hand
- The team that captures 3 or 4 tens wins the hand (1 point).
- Capturing all four tens is Mendikot (2 points). Winning all 13 tricks is a whitewash (3 points).
- If the tens split 2–2, the team with 7 or more tricks wins.
First team to 5 points wins the match. Tip: when your partner is sure to win a trick, throw them your ten!
