RULES:
The object of the game is to be the first player to score 500 points by making sets of nine cards. Setup. Place the corner board on the table in reach of all the players. Short the deck so that a complete set of 9 identical cards is included for each player playing and shuffle them together. It doesn’t matter which suits you pick. For example, if you are playing with 5 players, you would shuffle 5 sets of 9 cards together. Deal 9 cards, facedown, to each player.
Each player looks at their own cards but keeps them hidden from their opponents. Once everyone is ready, the dealer says: “the exchange is open”. Every player now plays simultaneously by trading the same quantity of cards with other players. To trade, take up to 4 cards of the same suit and call out the total number of cards: for example: “Trade 3… 3… 3”.
You may trade with any other player so long as the quantity of cards match. You may negotiate a trade of fewer with an opponent by simply removing cards from your initial trade. While trading, keep the faces of the cards hidden from other players.
Continue trading until one player corners the market and has all 9 cards of the same suit and hits the corner board calling out “Corner on Cattle” or “Corner on Cocoa” or whatever the commodity may be. The first player to corner a market, scores points equal to the number indicated on the commodity they cornered. Add these points to the scores on a piece of paper and if no one surpasses 500 points, then the winner shuffles and deal the next hand.
The first player to 500 points wins.
There are two addition cards you can choose to play with: the bear and the bull. When playing with these cards, setup the game normally and add them in, two players in this game will have 10 cards instead of 9. Players with 10 cards still only need to make a match of nine cards, discarding the remainder card.
The bull card can either be a wild card or a penalty card while the bear card is always a penalty.
If you hold the bull card, you only need 8 cards of the same suit to corner the market. When you do call out “Bull Corner” when you hit the corner board. You score points like normal for the commodity you have. If you have 9 cards of the same suit and the bull card, then you call out “double bull corner”. This time you score twice as many points for the commodity you’ve cornered.
If you hold the bull or the bear card when an opponent calls “corner”, you lose 20 points. If you hold both the bear and the bull, you lose 40 points. Your score is allowed to be negative. You may trade the bear and the bull individually as single cards, together as a “trade 2”, or in any combination of another trade so long as you don’t trade more than four cards at a time. For example, you could trade the bear with three cocoa.
Finally, for a quieter game, you may play with silent bidding. Instead of speaking trades, each player holds up fingers indicating how many cards they are willing to trade.
