=== Oh! well === Phillips and Westall describe "oh! well" as "one of the best round games", not only appealing to expert players, but also to beginners and youngsters because of the simplicity of its rules, which are as [[#Common rules|above]] with the following additional details:<ref name=P&W/> If three play, the bottom card of the pack is removed and set aside face down. If five, six or seven play, then 2, 4 or 3 cards, respectively, are removed from the bottom of the pack. Otherwise the full pack is used. The dealer distributes the cards and turns the last, which is his, for trump. The dealer or scribe records the bids. The same number of cards is dealt in each deal (β). Players score 1 point for each trick taken. In addition, any player who achieves scores a bonus of 10 points. Game is 100 points. If played for stakes, players pay the differences in their points converted into money at the agreed rate. Alternatively players ante a stake to the pool and the winner takes all. {{anchor|Nomination Whist|Nomination whist|Contract Whist}}
