Objective
Dou Di Zhu is played among three people with one pack of cards, including the two jokers. The game starts with players bidding for the Landlord (Chinese: 地主; pinyin: Dìzhǔ; literally "Landlord") position. Those who lose the bid enter the game as the Farmers (simplified Chinese: 农民; traditional Chinese: 農民; pinyin: Nóngmín; literally "Farmers") team competing against the Landlord. The objective of the game is to be the first player to have no cards left.
