Pepper

Pepper is an easy game to learn, but offers opportunities for strategy both in the bidding and the play. In Bid Euchre (Pepper), two decks of cards are used which introduces more opportunities for bidding in which the trump suit is decided by which player can bid to take the most tricks. Bid Euchre is very similar to euchre, the primary differences being the number of cards dealt, absence of any undealt cards, the bidding and scoring process, and the addition of a no trump declaration.
