You could see it as an attempt to build community. Anthony D'Mello invited us over to the St Christopher Club in Tivim, Bardez, Goa (Estd 1964). Victor Fernandes (of Pilerne) and myself are struggling to understand the rules of this game, as is obvious. He's doing it more successfully than me. We finally found some explanation from a similar sounding game, from Sao Paulo (I guess) in Brazil. See here: https://www.pagat.com/put/truco_br.html (and check the Paulista variant of the game).
