A new automatic playout feature has been added to the Hearts Multi Online Player version which will skip the remaining tricks and go directly to the end of hand summary in the event that there are no more point cards left to be captured or the player that captured the most recent trick will capture all remaining tricks regardless of the order in which they play their remaining cards. This is not the same thing as a 'lay down', when a player can capture all remaining tricks but must play them in a specific order to do so.
This should speed up the game a little bit and keep it more exciting.

Hearts Variations
I recently received some feedback regarding the possibility of playing different rule variations on the site such as:
- Black maria
- Partnership hearts
- Spot hearts
- Cancellation hearts
Keep sending in your ideas and I will pick the most popular rule variations and work on implementing them.
Development is currently focused on the multi online player version so it is quite likely that rule variations might be implemented there first. Hopefully we can build up a large enough online hearts community that it would be worthwhile to create a system for online tournaments.
