Variant notes

• This preset is for two players. Per deal, score one each for most cards, most coins/diamonds, settebello and primiera, plus one per sweep (scopa). Tied majorities award no point.
• The first player to 11 or more cumulative points wins after the deal; a tie at the target requires another deal.
• Settebello is the seven of coins (or diamonds), and the primiera uses the linked card scale. Compute the deal total manually.

Use each linked source for its named variant. House rules and editions can differ.
