trump is not turned up, rather it is chosen by the player willing to contract for the greatest number of tricks,.Players are dealt 10 cards as opposed to 5,.It is a variation of Euchrewith these following changes: The game’s name is a reference to its objective- be the first player or team to reach a score of 500 points.

If that player later reaches or exceeds 500, no one wins the game.OBJECTIVE OF FIVE HUNDRED: Reach 500 points first. If one player reaches or exceeds a minus 500, that player must continue play until an opponent wins the game. If only the two opponents reach or exceed 500 points during play, the one who takes the first trick wins the game. If the contractor and one or both opponents reach or exceed 500 points after a hand, the contractor wins, and it does not matter if the contractor has fewer points. If one player reaches or exceeds 500 points after a hand, that player wins the game. It does not matter whether the contract is made or not, and one opponent cannot count what the other opponent takes. Meanwhile, each opponent scores 10 points for each trick he or she takes. If you fail to make your contract, you must deduct that same number of points from your running score. The only exception to this rule is if you win all 10 tricks and your bid was less than 250 points. For example, if you bid 8 diamonds and win 9 tricks, you score 280 points, not 380 points. If you win more tricks than bid, you receive no additional points. Scoring: If you become the contractor and win the number of tricks bid, you receive the number of points designated in the scoring table (see chart below). In a no-trump contract, the joker is the highest-ranked card. If you lead the joker in no trump, you must specify what suit it is. If there is no trump, the joker belongs to no suit until it is played. When there is trump, the joker is the highest trump, it must follow suit when trumps are led, and you cannot play the joker if you have at least one card of a nontrump suit led. If more than one trump is played, the highest trump wins. The highest card in the suit wins the trick unless a trump is played. Any card may be led, and the other two players must follow suit if able. The contractor leads to the first trick, and subsequently the winner of a trick leads to the next trick. At this point before play, the contractor claims the widow and discards three losers, which can also include cards in the widow. Playing: The player who declares the highest bid wins the contract, and the other two players unite to become the contractor's opponents. If all players pass, the hand is thrown in, and the next dealer deals a new hand. Each bid must indicate the trump suit or no trump and the number of tricks to be taken, from six to ten.
