    Description

    Hedges is a two-player shedding game with a traditional deck. You score for 5s, 10s, and Kings captured while playing combos—but only the player who sheds out their hand first. Otherwise they count against you as negative points. As you capture point cards you decide if they’ll be claimed or "hedged". Hedging means they don't score for anyone, mitigating cards that would otherwise score negative–but you’ll suffer being too cautious. The player best able to predict if and when she’ll go out, skillfully mitigate losses along the way, along with an occasional well-placed gamble and bluff, will win the most points.

    Part of the "Two-player Climbing Trilogy": Hedges, Tuhao, Eat or Run.
