phase, i.e. she does not bid against the two players. The players must therefore outbid each other and work out who goes first. So Oma always plays with one of the players against his or her opponent. Otherwise the usual Skat rules apply. This creates situations that would not occur in normal Skat.

Germany's most popular card game, as it is easier to play than conventional Skat.
