Sheepshead Trainer: Trump Play
Learn Trump, Bury, and Tricks
Free · In‑App Purchases
Practice trump, picking, partner play, and trick decisions in short drills before your next Sheepshead deal.
Practice Sheepshead in five-minute drills: read trump, choose a blind, protect a partner plan, and learn the reason behind every answer.
Sheepshead is a focused practice companion for players learning the game or sharpening decisions between table sessions. No opponents, no pressure, and no account required. Just quick interactive reps that build confidence before the next deal.
FOUR FREE PRACTICE ROOMS
THE CARD ROOM
Learn the 32-card deck, point values, the blind, picking, and the called-ace partnership.
THE TRUMP ROOM
See a holding, identify the trump and fail cards, and read trick strength separately from point value.
THE BURY ROOM
Study the picker tradeoff. Choose two cards to bury from an eight-card holding, then compare your decision with the coach's reasoning.
THE TRICK ROOM
Practice following suit, ordering trump, finding the partner, and capturing the point cards that decide the hand.
SHEEPSHEAD+ (optional upgrade)
Everything above stays free, forever. Sheepshead+ adds fresh practice that never runs out:
ENDLESS PRACTICE generates new legal holdings for focused card and trump practice.
FIX MY MISTAKES remembers what you missed and brings it back on a spaced schedule.
TIMED CHALLENGE gives you ninety seconds and a personal best to chase.
EXTRA PRACTICE SETS add original questions to every beginner room.
THE MASTER TABLES open advanced picker, partner, defense, and trick strategy.
BUILT FOR NEW PLAYERS
Swipeable cards explain the why on the back. Streaks keep practice moving. Original teaching holdings make the rules easier to remember at a real table.
Sheepshead is an independent practice app. House rules vary, so use the rules agreed at your table.

A smarter rhythm for card night.
Sheepshead Minute is a new daily challenge. Every member gets the same five questions on the same day: two hand reads, one bury decision, and two trick calls. Share your score, and keep a forgiving five-day weekly rhythm with a 30-day archive to catch up from.
Game Night Prep lets you set your usual card night. A reminder arrives beforehand and opens straight into a five-minute session built from your due mistakes, your weakest room, and material you have not seen yet.
Sheepshead Trainer now runs natively on iPad, in portrait or landscape.
Sheepshead Minute and Game Night Prep are part of Sheepshead+.
