Cut Throat

Background

Back in the summer of 1999, I spent a week at the beach with my friend and some of his extended family.
While I was there I learned both the card game Cut Throat and the domino game 42. Around seven years
later I decided that a computerized version of the game needed to exist, so based on my somewhat faulty
memory of the rules, I created this game. I apologize to anyone who knows the rules better than I do.

Game Description

Cut Throat is a five person card game somewhat similar to Euchre. Each hand consists of a round of bidding,
which is followed by ten tricks. If the bidder wins enough tricks, that team scores points, otherwise the
opposing team scores. The game continues until a player reaches the preset winning score.
(A much more detailed set of instructions can be found here)
