From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Troefcall is a card game from Suriname with similarities to belote and hearts, [1] and to the Indian game court piece of which it might be a derivative. [2] [3]

There are competitions organized by troefcall federations in the Netherlands (Troefcall Sportbond Nederland, TSBN) [4] and in Suriname (Surinaamse Troefcall Bond, STcB). [5] It is estimated that more than one hundred thousand people from both countries play this card game. [6] Via Surinamese Dutch the card game was introduced in the Netherlands. People from all Surinamese population groups play this game. [7]

A tjall (the original name of the game) is the trump in the game. Bounie means the total gain, in other words 52 points (4 times 13 points). Kap (Hindi: koth) is a quarter of the total number of points, in other words 13. [8]
