repique

Scoring before play

Repique is a scoring term in the card game piquet.

A player scores repique by reaching thirty points from declarations alone—combinations of cards in hand—before the opponent scores anything and before any cards are played.

The bonus is substantial: sixty points added to the declaration total.
