Dehla Pakad

Classic Dehla Pakad Card Game on Android

"Dehla Pakad" (Hindi for "Collect the tens") is a trick-taking card game widely played in India, especially in the north.

A standard 52 card pack is used, the cards in each suit ranking from high to low A-K-Q-J-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2. There are four players, in two fixed partnerships of two, partners sitting opposite each other. Deal and play are anticlockwise.

The aim of the game is to win "Kots" by collecting as many tens as possible in tricks. If a team takes four tens they win a "Kot" (or "Coat"). Also the team that takes the majority of tens wins the hand, and if neither side takes all the tens, it is also possible to win a Kot by winning seven consecutive hands.
