Long Game

Kristen and I just finished what is mathematically the longest Euchre game possible. I won! Before that though it was 9-9, we could not have played more rounds. We were also playing two-handed-Euchre, so I guess technically we could play an infinite number of rounds as we play that no points are awarded in the case of a tie (5 tricks each.) The 10-9 final score should have meant 19 rounds but actually we did have a number of tied rounds as well so it was much more. I enjoy two-handed-Euchre but I miss the regular kind with four people. Not many people I know in Ottawa know how to play though, and I hate teaching it. When I was younger teaching a new person Euchre was such a headache, no one could ever figure out the left and right bower thing. I guess my friends and I are older now and they would probably learn quicker, but I'm still not a patient enough person.
