Seriously off-topic: Skat

[Will]

So I've been playing Skat against a computer, and the computer gives me feedback. One thing I can't understand is that the computer, who only speaks German, says from time to time that I have one or more "stehende Volle."

Ich spreche ein bißchen Deutsch, aber für mich ist Deutsch natürlich eine Fremdsprache. Ich kann genug Deutsch um mich normalerweise verständlich zu machen, aber Skat Fachbegriffe verstehe ich überhaupt nicht.

Can someone enlighten me and explain what a "stehende Volle" is?

Vielen Dank!

[mgeiss]

A "Volle" is a card with value 10 or 11, so 10s and Aces.

"Stehende" cards are the ones with the highest value of a given suit which are still in the game.

So assume trump is Pik.

I have the ace and 10 of diamonds im Beiblatt. These would be two stehende Volle? Or one stehende Volle, since they are in the same suit?

Also, having only a non-trump 10 without the ace to protect it, does that count as a stehende Volle?

Thanks again!
