| The
members of the brotherhood not only play kolf. Some of them play schutjassen,
an old card game also in the Netherlands almost only played in the St.
Eloyen Gasthuis.
Schutjassen
is played with four men (the society is only for men) and the game can
be diversed by the possibility to terminate the game to claim the victory
when a player expects to win, looking at his own cards and value the cards
of his opponents (to terminate is schutten or schudden in old dutch).
The best trump card is the peasant, second the 9 (called nel in dutch),
then the ace and following the normal sequence. |
