From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tarot scoring or Tarock scoring is the system by which scores are worked out in Tarot card games. The aim in almost all card games of the Tarot family - also called Tarock games - is to make as many points as possible from the cards taken in tricks, the cards having different point values. The method of doing this may appear "eccentric and puzzling", but there is a rationale to it.[1]
