You are at the Black Eagle Club for the weekly Schnapsen tournament. You have just sat down opposite the local champion Katharina, who deals out the cards. The very first hand you pick up forces you to think. Don’t you just hate that?

The trump marriage is a welcome sight, but all those singleton tens make you very nervous. What is your plan? When you think you have a good plan, you are welcome to read my analysis.
