I have no idea what this is, but the word makes me think of ancient philosophers.

First thing I thought of when I saw the thread title.  I thought it was a RIP thread, especially considering what a baseball fanatic snapple is.

Better than spades, hearts, or 4 sevens?

I've heard there are regional differences.

We usually play "screw/fuck-the-dealer", which means if no one calls it by the time the flip card is turned down and gets back to the dealer, the dealer HAS to call trump. Well, that's about the only weird rule we use.

lol  A lot of my friends who aren't from Indiana have no clue what I'm talking about when I mention euchre. 

Euchre is a great game.  I play the "Try not to screw your partner" version.

What's the difficulty level compared to either Spades or Hearts?

its a kiddy highschool game.....once you see the patterns enough you can know what everyone has in their hand.

it's the "8-ball" of trump games.

Take care everyone - Bet you all didn't even notice I was gone.

Euchre and Asshole were the four-person card staples in my schooling years.  Play it periodically nowadays.
