from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yourselfers , formerly Eilfern or mechanical figures , in Austria Elfmandeln , is a traditional card game for two people, with the Skatblatt is played. In this game you win with a majority of pieces in the tricks. Pieces are aces, kings, queens, jacks and tens. So there are 20 figures in the sheet. The winner therefore needs eleven figures.

Each player initially receives six cards. The dealer's partner plays first. The color played must only be used when the talon cards have been used up. These are drawn by both playing partners after each trick.

If there is no service, the opponent wins the trick. At the end of the game, the pieces are counted, at 10 to 10 the game ends in a draw.

In the middle of the 19th century it was played throughout the German-speaking area, but was not one of the most popular games.
