Pinocle

While mom and dad have been here we've played a few really good hands of Pinocle! One night we played guys against girls.....after some very interesting hands and a little mix-up on what a Pinocle consists of (a queen of spades and a jack of diamonds) the gals ended up winning!!!!! Then the next night we played girls against guys again. The guys were looking to redeem themselves from the night before. After 3 hours of play we had been back and forth back and forth it seemed like the game would never end! The score at this point was guys 125, gals -49! However - the girls ended up coming back from being down in the hole and winning AGAIN!!!!! Final score guys 65, girls 152!!!!
