1) Last trick

According to the FFT rules, at any time it is possible to see the last trick. The order of the players is the same as the trick was played. The name of the Taker is on black background and the winner of the trick is framed in red.



2) Statistics

This window allows to visualize the count of the cards already played in each color (upper line), the cards remaining to play and the conclusions of the computer during the game about which player has or has not which card:
O the player has this card
x the player has not this card
+ the player probably has this card
- the player probably has not this card

For each color, are displayed only the cards remaining to play. In the column of the players (N, W, S, E), if the letter of a player does not appear, it means that he has no more card of this color.



The user can choose to display only the upper line of the count of the played cards or else, by using the "Detail" button, to display the totality of the statistics.



3) Score


The score of the tournament in progress is displayed.

The area of the taker includes the following informations:
• a letter (Take, Guard, Without, Against) symbolizing the bidding.
• the indication of the possible bonus:
Top Ace of Trumps at the end
Middle Slam
Bottom Handful (simple) (double) (triple)
A bonus symbol in green indicates that this one is in favour of the Taker, in red against the Taker. It should be noted that the symbol of a declared and successful slam will be in yellow (gold!).
• the amount of points indicating by how much the Taker succeeded (in green) or lost (in red) its contract.
• the amount of points gained or lost according to the bidding and possible bonus.

For example, in the 1st deal below, the Taker (François) wins his Guard of 18 points with the Ace of Trumps at the end, giving an amount of 318 points to him. In the second deal, the Taker (West) wins his Take of 2 points with a simple Handful and the Ace of Trumps at the end, that is giving 171 points to him.

With this window, it is possible to visualize all the previous games and deals: you just have to click the desired line in the case of a free deals tournament, or on the line and the column chosen with a duplicate tournament. In short as in a spreadsheet... to play Tarot!
