    Abstract: A card game involves players competing for respective shares of an inheritance from a decedent. Trick-taking rounds are played in which players estimate the number of tricks they expect to take based on their dealt hands. Successful achievement of the estimated number of tricks earns an inheritance payout, while failure to match the estimate results in a debt owed to the bank. The majority of cards are divided into suits, each of which corresponds to a different line of descendants related to the decedent, and each of which has a hierarchy of familial positions. A small number of ‘lawyer cards’ are included that outrank the suited family cards, and that can be played to take the hand when a player cannot follow suit.
