Schwimmen/31 - Das Kartenspiel

The game swimming is also known under the names "Schnautz", "Hosen down" or simply "31".

The goal in swimming is to collect cards of one color to get as close as possible to 31 points.

Each player has three cards and in the middle there are also three cards with which the players can swap.

When it is a player's turn they have four choices:

- Swap one of your cards for one in the middle

- Pass, do nothing (If all players pass one after the other, the middle cards are renewed)

- Knock, it's one more turn for each player. Then the points are compared.

- Swap all your cards with all the cards in the middle.

The player with the highest score wins a round. The player with the fewest points loses a life.

Should a player have 31 or more points, all cards are immediately revealed.

If one player has three aces (33 points), everyone else loses a life.

Does a player three times eg. King count these 30.5. This rule applies to all of the same cards except aces.

Otherwise, these scores apply:

7-9: according to card value

10, Jack, Queen, King: 10 points

Ace: 11 points
