The standard ruleset is what most people will be familliar with. All of the hearts are worth one point and the queen of spades is worth 13 points. The game ends as soon as one player reaches 100 points. You can also "shoot the moon" - that is taking all the hearts and the queen of spades in a single round. Your score will be reduced 26 points instead of increased by 26 points. You can also "shoot the sun" by taking all the tricks in a round. In that case your score is reduced by 52 points.

The omnibus ruleset is nearly identical to the standard ruleset but with a bonus card. The player who takes the jack of diamonds has his score reduced by 10 points. You do not need to take this card when you "shoot the moon".

All the hearts cards are worth their face value, with 11 points for the jack, 12 points for the queen, 13 points for the king and 14 points for the ace. The queen of spades is worth 25 points and the game ends when the first player reaches 500 points. "Shooting the moon" will reduce your score by 129 points and shooting the sun will reduce it by 258 points.
