Hearts

Omnibus: the jack of diamonds is worth minus ten

Taking the jack of diamonds subtracts ten from your score for the hand. Everything else is unchanged: hearts are one each, the queen of spades is thirteen, and every other diamond is still worth nothing. A player shooting the moon needs all thirteen hearts and the queen but does NOT need the jack. Standard Hearts gives you only penalties to avoid; one card worth chasing changes what a trick is for.
