Sheepshead + Brewers = Good Idea?


I'm actually quite new to yahoo sheeps. Man, it is so frustrating to be a newbie. You get booted out of TONS of games before you get to play. ACK!

 

Anyway, I wish I still lived in Waukesha...a brewers/sheeps night would be great fun...

Currently, I live on the street where 794 ends in Cudahy

 

Hey, so do I.

 

I love Sheepshead. I play every Monday at the bar after softball. Call your ace, leasters followed by a doubler, each point is a nickel. Sheepshead + Brewers > Red Delicious + Mr. Pibb

I'd be up for some sheepshead in Waukesha.

 

Great game.

 

Love Doublers (only can double once though and you keep playing doublers then until they are used up)

 

also like cracks- if someone picks before you can pick and you think you can win you crack and the hand doubles

 

Crackbacks - after the crack if the partner of the picker thinks they can still make it they crackback and the hand doubles again.

 

Pots- If nobody calls hence becoming a doubler everybody puts in the base amount (we play for quarters), everybody also donates to the pot for a bump or if it is empty. Then if you have a hand you feel confident on before you pick up the blind you can call how many pots you want or stacks (we usually play with 5 players so one pot is $1.25). If you win the hand you get to walk away with how many pots you called. If you lose the hand you need to donate to the pot how many pots you called.

 

Big Blitzers and little blitzers- Not as big of a fan. But I played with these also where if you have the two black queens (big blitzers) or the two red queens ( little blitzers) you show them and the hand doubles.

 

Overall a great game with any rules. It would be fun to get together some time and mix the two.
