Automatic play in Oh Hell

[CastorOyl]

I understand that you cannot automatically select cards from players even if they only have one card in a lead suit. To do so might reveal (from their instant play) that they are down to just one card and now out of that suit.

However, the last card of every round in Oh Hell (and many other trick taking games) is compulsory. You don't have any other choices. Just play it out automatically for all of the players and determine the winner rather than requiring each player to select his/her one card from a hand of one card. It would speed up the game without leaking any information.

Thanks,

I would support this, for any trick-taking card game. As long as the interface leaves the trick and leading card visible for a bit so people have time to parse what occurred, this seems good.
