Standard Pinochle Deck

Included in this upload is a simple Pinochle deck of 48 cards!

Basic stuff to know:

The 48 card deck includes 8 nines, 8 jacks, 8 queens, 8 kings, 8 tens, and 8 aces.

Trick taking order for all games of pinochle is as follows:

9<jack<queen<king<10<ace

So following that logic, in a standard 4 player game of pinochle, user one lays down a jack, user two lays down a king, user three lays down an ace, and user four lays down a 10, then user three would take the trick with his ace.
(see screenshot #2, the nines on the bottom are the weakest cards, will not take any tricks. cards get progressively stronger with ace being able to take any trick)

The objective of all games of Pinochle is to take tricks, and gain cards which are worth points. Kings, tens, and aces are each worth one point (though that can depend on your games bidding scale)
