Round Wind and Jongh

The source treats prevailing wind not only as a point term, but also as a game cycle. To avoid confusion, this page uses round wind for that cycle and prevailing wind for the wind that is active in that cycle.

Main rule

The cycle runs in this order:

East -> South -> West -> North

Each wind prevails for one round. Only after all players under that wind have been jongh does the round wind move on to the next wind.

Jongh

The source says:

East is jongh

as long as jongh wins, jongh stays on turn

if someone else wins, the player to the right of the previous jongh becomes the new jongh

Limmen

Limmen is the term for staying jongh (East).

With limmen, jongh therefore stays with the same player, but that repetition is not treated as a running pot.

End of the game cycle

With the end of the round wind North, the full game cycle is finished.

Effect at the table

This means that 2 different wind concepts are active at the same time:

your own wind at the table

the prevailing wind of the current round wind

That difference later matters for points and multipliers.

Quick check

Jongh stays as long as jongh wins.
Limmen means staying jongh (East).
The round wind moves on only after all players under that wind have been jongh.
The full cycle ends after North.
