Euchre uses 9-ace with jacks being the highest cards if spade is trumps then jack of spade is
high card with jack of club being next.
I've heard of it but never played. I'll ask my folks if they have played. It must be a good game, cause I have heard of more friends of mine when I was younger playing euchre than pinochle. I don't know anyone outside of my family who has played pinochle, but have heard of friends talk about playing euchre.
