The short version

How it works

Start a table, send one link, and play euchre with friends on live video. No app, no signup, and bots sit in for anyone who is missing.

Euchre needs four people in the same room. That is the whole problem. This site keeps the four seats and the conversation, and drops the room.

Start a table

Click Start a table on the homepage. You get a table number and a link. No account, no email, no download. The table is yours the moment it exists.

Anyone with the link can sit down. They pick a seat, type a name, and they are in. Partners sit across from each other, the way they would at a kitchen table.

Friends who only want to watch can open the same link and stay standing. They see the table and the chat, and they never see anyone's hand.

Fill the empty seats with bots

You almost never get all four. Jimmy, Juniper and Luna sit in for whoever is missing, so one, two or three humans is still a real game. If someone has to leave partway through, the rest of the table decides whether to wait for them or hand the seat to a bot and keep playing.

Turn on video

This is the part that makes it feel like euchre instead of a card app. Everyone at the table appears around the felt, next to their own cards, so you get the table talk, the groan when the right bower drops, and the look your partner gives you when you order it up from the wrong seat.

Video is the one paid feature. One person at the table buys a Host Pass, and everyone at their table plays on video, whether or not anybody else has paid.

Set the house rules

Every family plays euchre a little differently, so the rules are switches, not arguments:

Set them in the lobby before the first hand. What you pick is remembered for your next table.

Play

Deal, order it up, go alone when the hand is worth it, and keep score on the peg board next to the felt. Nobody has to track points on the back of an envelope.

FAQ

Do I need to create an account to play euchre here?

No. Starting a table and playing without video needs no account and no email at all. An account is only required if you want live video at the table or you want to buy a Host Pass.

How many people do I need?

One. Bots fill any seat nobody takes, so you can play alone against three bots, or with one, two or three friends and bots for the rest.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. The table layout rearranges for a phone screen, with the other players around the trick and your hand on a bar along the bottom.

Is there any real money involved?

No. There is no wagering, no chips with cash value and no casino element of any kind. The only thing you can buy is a Host Pass that turns on video at your table.
