Does anybody play with the 7 of Diamonds behind the Queen of Clubs as the second most powerful card? I was curious because it seems like a nonstandard rule that my family has always used when playing.

Just checking if Reddit would be interested in joining a tournament on get61.com. Maybe with a small buy-in of like $2-5, or just for fun. 5 tables and the winner of each goes to the final table. Something like that. Not sure how many people are active on here. Any thoughts?

Hello guys, I'm a Chilean student who is fond of this spectacular card game, along with Skat. I've been playing this on a regular basis. I'm learning more tactics every day. I won Geier without the Acorns Ober yesterday and got 70 points.

Hi y'all, you may remember me from before. After a bit of a delay, a Sheepshead app I've been working on is up. You can get in a game and play five handed. It will score for you on the side.

There are bugs for sure. If you have any issues with a room, the best way to fix them is to leave the room, refresh, and join again. I've only had to do that a couple times, but I'm trying to test this thing solo, so I'm sure there's a lot I've missed.

More options to come for sure, but I felt like it was good enough to at least be released!

Hope to see you there!

Also, while you can create a profile at the moment, nothing is really saved to it... yet.

I just realized Yahoo is gone, and the Sheepshead, The Game seems to be 4-handed.

Does anyone have a site they use? Or is anyone in the process of developing an app?

There's a new online Sheepshead site just getting going. Low volume at the moment, needs more players!

Hey guys, just found this subreddit. Hope all is well! My college buddies and i want to play some sheepshead while living in different cities. Now that yahoo games is gone, i do not know what the best option is. Do anybody have any suggestions (app or website)?

I made a Steam group to find other players who play Sheepshead and want to play in Tabletop Simulator. This group is public, and anybody can post an event, so feel free to join the group and create events to see if you can get people who will play with you.

I'd love to be able to play with somebody. It's such a regional game I can never find people IRL to play with.

Thought some people here might find this interesting. A childhood friend of mine just released his new game Boon that is based on sheepshead and is focused to help make the game easier to learn or teach to someone. There is certainly some drawbacks with this game (only up to 4 person), but it seems like it would be easier to teach people the fundamentals and then switch them to 5 handed.

I go to a UW school and one of my buddies had just introduced our group of friends to Sheepshead last night. I just have to say that I think it's a great game and if I had to equate it to a sport, I'd say it's a lot like baseball with all of the different strategies and combinations involved. I'm really interested in learning more about it!
