Quiero or no quiero?
You get three cards and your opponent makes a call. You decide; then the engine shows you the math: what your chances were and how many points you can expect with each answer.
Your opponent calls envido

You haven't answered any yet.
How the engine decides
- Envido: it counts your points against every possible opponent hand (the 7,770 that are left) and compares what you expect to win by saying quiero with what you lose if you say no quiero.
- Truco: your chance of winning the tricks with your cards in view, against all those hands.
The engine can't guess why your opponent made the call: it assumes any hand. At the table, if your opponent calls, they usually have something: be a little more careful than the engine.
What each answer is worth
- Envido with quiero: 2 points to whoever has more; with no quiero: 1 to whoever made the call.
- Real envido with quiero: 3; with no quiero: 1.
- Truco with quiero: 2 to whoever wins the hand; with no quiero: 1 to whoever made the call.
- Tied points: the mano wins.
