My preparation for sheepshead foundered on two factors:\u00a0 1.\u00a0 I could not discipline myself to count points and keep track of trump.\u00a0 I tended to lapse back into not counting.\u00a0 2.\u00a0 I had poor hands and bad luck in addition.\u00a0 A tough combination to overcome.\u00a0 Still, I can learn. I’m sure.<\/p>\n
