How to use this sheet

Write each player's name at the top of a column. A hand ends the moment a player empties their Blitz pile and calls out Blitz.

Sort the Dutch piles in the middle by the back of each card. Every player scores 1 point for each of their cards in the Dutch piles and loses 2 points for each card still in their Blitz pile. Write the result for each player in the hand's row; it can be negative.

The first player to reach 75 points wins. If two players pass 75 in the same hand, the higher total wins; online, the sheet waits until every score for that hand is in.
