Rules

Durak (Дурак, translated as Fool) is a popular Russian card game.
the following list contains classic real-life rules of it's basic variant - Podkidnoy (Подкидной, translated as Throw-in) Durak.

  • Durak is played with 36-card deck, from 6s to aces
  • the number of players varies from 2 to 5
  • the goal of the game is to get rid of all cards, the last player with cards in their hands is a Fool
  • each players gets 6 card from shuffled deck
  • the next card after drawing is laid open on the table and it's suit is a trump of this game
  • player that has the lowest trump is moving first
  • 6 is the lowest rank, ace is the highest, trump beats every non-trump card
  • the clockwise nearest player from moving player is a defender, the rest, including the moving player, are attackers
  • the moving can either put only one card on the table or throw multiple cards if all of them has the same rank
  • defender should either beat every card on the table or take all cards to their hand
  • while defender doesn't take cards, attackers can throw cards that has the same rank as any of cards on the table
  • if attackers don't throw any cards, all cards on the table are placed in the discard pile and the successful defender becomes the moving player
  • if defender picks up cards on the table, he loses their turn to attack, so the next moving player is the clockwise nearest to them
