Description

This is a no-ads version of the first and most popular pinochle app for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Play single- or double-deck with configurable options including meld bids and shoot the moon. Pinochle Plus is updated frequently with user-suggested features and AI improvements. To try before you buy, see our free, ad-supported Pinochle app. If you prefer, our other pinochle app with no advertising, Pinochle Gold, has more card backs and tabletops to choose from, and adds support for several languages.

Pinochle is a card game played with a 48- or 80-card deck of 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings and aces. The game consists of a repeating sequence of bidding (for the right to name the trump suit and optionally to pass cards), melding, and trick-taking. Players score points by melding various card combinations and by taking tricks.

In this version, one human player (South) plays with a computer partner (North) and two computer opponents (West and East).

BIDDING: Each player bids the number of points she thinks she can make with her hand. Player to the dealer's left is required to bid, and bidding proceeds to the left. Players who pass are out of the bidding for that hand. A typical high bid is 35 points (for 48 cards) or 60 (for 80 cards). High bidder names the trump suit for the hand and optionally exchanges cards with her partner.

MELDING: Players get points by showing various card combinations. A run (or straight) in the trump suit is worth 15 points. Aces in all four suits is 10 points. Pinochle (queen of spades and jack of diamonds) is 4 points, or 30 points for double pinochle (two of each).

TRICKS: Play begins with the high bidder, and proceeds around the table to the left, 4 cards per trick. Each trick has a winner, who gets 1 point per ace, ten or king.

SCORING: If the high bidder fails to make the bid (his team's total meld plus trick points is less than the bid), the bid amount is subtracted from the team score. Play continues until one team goes out.

JWH44,
Best card game ever!!!!
I learned how to play Double Handed Pinocle back in my Air Force Fire Fighter days back in 1993.i had coworkers who showed no interest in teaching us younger guys the game. 8 years later and I was playing every shift we worked. Now I have to play on this app. And my partner is useless as a player. But I do have a winning record. The meld passing needs to be more concrete not so inconsistent. 12 isn’t close to 20 meld. But it’s still a great game!!
jmf301,
Game apparently quite unfair
I’ve been playing single deck, bidding starts at 15, each side needs at least 10 of 25 counters to score anything. 250 points win. It’s very difficult to win when:
1. Your partner plays and bids poorly while the opponents not only play like experts but each seems to know what the other has: i.e., ‘Unauthorized Information’. Your partner (North) may refuse to bid in the rare case of holding Aces round and an opponent may name a not so good 3 or 4 card suit as trump and find 4, 5, or 6 trumps in other opponent’s hand. Hard to win playing 3 against 1 even when there’s no ‘cheating’!
2. Opponents are dealt far more good hands than you and partner. Sometimes, 8 or 9 out of 10 hands. You’re dealt no good suit and no or one lousy ace so usually either the opponents get bid and you don’t score and if you do bid you get set. Opponents get Aces round and Runs many time more than you and partner do.

Nice game but don’t expect to win
The game is well laid out with plenty of configurations and options for making it the version you are use to playing.

But don’t expect to win very often. The reason: your system managed partner does not use the same algorithms for bidding or playing tricks that your competitors use. This can be extremely frustrating some times. It is no where near as aggressive at bidding or calculating when playing tricks than the competing team. and often your partner will make plays that no experienced player would make.

So play the game is fine for fun if you don’t mind loosing most of the time and don’t consider it reflective or practice for a real game.

Frustration
I play this game often. I'm a single deck player. The meld is ridiculous. Dummy opposing team seem to get all large meld hand. 45 meld, 27 meld. Ridiculous!!! Opponent always has the aces. My dummy partner doesn't bid correctly and how bout an update with the option of NO auction bid? Takes all the fun out of the game. It's hard enough to get a run, then they get 26 meld. Fix this game and make it fair. How this gets on the update is crazy. Find out who did that, and who approved it, fire them both. I give 2 stars just cause I love pinochle. 2 stars is pushing it for me. Get people who really know how to play the game to redesign it.
Offer no no action bid.

Pinochle
Very good version of the game with lots of customization features. My only complaint is that the game is very pessimistic about how many tricks you can take. For example: say you need 20 tricks to save your meld and the app says you might take 17. More times than not I’ll end up taking high 20’s or even 30 or more. This part of the app need some work.
Marichan46,
Would like to reboot and change partner
I have found the opponent plays better than my partner in this double deck game. My partner once had double Aces around (100 points) with 3 Aces with a run. Partner passed without a bid! However, it is the closest double deck pinochle (do not play with passing) to the real game without the human factor! I do enjoy it even with the horrible partner.

Choice of Cards to Play
This is a great game! However, when the opponent is cutting a suit, why is it necessary to give them a counter to cut instead of a non-counter. For example: why play an ace instead of a jack in a suit when I know the opponent is cutting in a suit?

Also, why give away ur trump suit towards the end of a hand when u have a suit the opponent is cutting only to draw that last trump from the opponents hand? Why not play the suit being cut instead to draw their last trump suit and keep the remaining trump in your hand?
Tango Suckah,
Great game and ideas
Some people play where the failing bid pointS go to the other team, not count as negative points. Game goes quicker yes, but....
another cool rule is where 5 10s of any suit count as 50 points for meld
This is the only time 10s count for anything, which pits them in play a little and sometimes you don’t want to lay it down in melding because you opponents then can see where the 10s are.
Another optional rule is if anyone is dealt 5 9s and no meld there is an auto redeal.
These would be options in settings, so, I think it would be cool to see some of the options for play...
Great game, thank you

Ladyprof,
How to gift this app?
I really like this app and would like to gift it to a friend, but share as a gift is not an available choice when I bring it up in the app store. Why not? I’m happy to pay for the gift with no ads, but this option not there.
Hanover red,
Great App
Is there a way to play online? I really enjoy your App and it allows me to keep playing my favorite game.
It is extremely difficult to find people that know how to play double deck pinochle in my area.
Keep up the great App ❣️
