Wellington
If a player calls Napoleon, and another player on his left considers he can
also make five tricks, he may call "Wellington," in which case the stakes
are doubled, the caller winning 20 or losing 10. As this rule, however,
is regarded with disfavour by some, in consequence of its raising the limit
of a loss on any particular hand from 10 to 20, it is sometimes played
differently. The player who calls Wellington does not receive more than
he would have done for Napoleon, but pays double, i.e., 10.
