  • The Rules of Bonken • Bonken Consists of 13 Separate Games, 8 Minus Games and 5 Plus Games
    The rules of Bonken • Bonken consists of 13 separate games, 8 minus games and 5 plus games. With every game a different number of points can be earned. The way these points can be earned is different for different games. The so-called minus games yield minus points and plus games yield plus points. There are as many plus points as there are minus points, so that the total number of points of all players is zero. The objective of the game is to get as many points as possible. In a bonk session 12 games will be played, and every game only once. Everybody is obliged to play a plus game once, and only once. Therefore 1 plus game will never be played. • Bonken is played with 52 cards. 13 cards per suit (Spades, Hearts, Diamonds and Clubs). The order of the cards for all the games from low to high is: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, jack, queen, king, ace. • One person deals the cards. The person who sits opposite the dealer chooses the game. The person on the left of the chooser starts bidding (see below). And the person on the right of the chooserleads.Theveryfirstgame,though,ischosenbythepersonwhohas the seven of spades in his hand. Each player has to follow suit when possible (for the domino game see below). The person who wins the trick leads next. After every game we rotate clockwise forthenextdealer,chooser,bidderandthepersonwholeadsfirst. Towards the end of the game, it could be that a chooser is passed. This situation occurs when all minus games have been played and the chooser has already chosen a plus game.
