Spooneye! The Card Game

The Standard Game

Flipping Cards: Hoisting the Colors

If a raised mast entirely consists of cards of one suit, the raising player is said to be hoisting the colors, and all of the cards in the raised mast are placed face-up in the booty pile. All cards in the captured mast go face-down in the booty pile, even if all of the same suit.

Turn 2M: Matey draws the K

and plays the 9

on the 5

, allowing him to spooneye the 7

onto the 9

and complete the mast. Since his mast is entirely of one suit, all three cards will go face up in Matey's booty pile. However, the captured 8

will still go face down.

Matey's Hand: 9
