Lua Cheia is a trick-taking game for two players, using a deck of 15 cards. Each player receives a 6 card hand, and the remaining three cards are not revealed. Each trick is "may follow" and resolved after each player has played one card. If the cards are of the same suit, the player with the lower ranked card loses an amount of life equal to the difference of the card ranks. If the cards are of different suits, the second player loses an amount of life equal to the rank of the lead player's card. At the end of a hand, the players' remaining life values are evaluated. If one player has been KO'd, the other player earns 3 points; otherwise, the player with the most life earns 1 point. Prepare a new round, with renewed life totals, and play until one player has earned at least 7 points; the player with the most points wins.
