How a lot is counted

1. The rank on a lot is its face value. An ace counts as fourteen.
2. The card you raise leaves the cabinet. That rank is the price paid for the lot.
3. Two cards of one suit add 3. Three of that suit add 12. Four add 26. From the fifth card, that suit adds 38, then 14 more for each card after it.
4. Net is the cabinet after the last hammer, minus the cabinet you carried in. The entry fee, and a fee for a closer look, come off before those two totals are compared.
