The object of the game is to make as many tricks as possible in a contract that can be played in no-trump (SA) or trump (♠, ♥, ♦, ♣).

La poule aux œufs d'Or has finally arrived at L'Initial.

In this game adapted for the residence, participating residents will have the chance to win a few pennies.

Here's how it all works:

1- Participants will have to buy participation coupons. Either $2 for one coupon or $5 for 3 coupons.

2- At the start of each game, your leisure chef will draw 2 coupons from among all those available. The 2 lucky residents will face off in the Door Game.

3- The door game: in turn, each player chooses a square and reveals an amount of money or an egg. The first participant to collect 3 eggs advances to the final round.

4- The final round: The winner of the door game chooses an envelope of his or her choice. The host reveals the amount of money inside. The participant can then choose to pick the egg of his/her choice without knowing the amount inside, or keep the amount in the envelope. If the participant chooses the egg, he or she will win the prize. The amount in the envelope cannot be taken back.

Have fun!

From Nia Vardalos, writer and star of MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING, comes the hilarious comedy MY LIFE IN RUINS. Georgia (Nia Vardalos) has lost her kefi (Greek for mojo ). Discouraged by her lack of direction in life, she works as a travel guide, leading a rag-tag group of tourists as she tries to show them the beauty of her native Greece. While opening their eyes to an exotic foreign land, she too begins to see things in new ways —finding her kefi in the process.
