3-player euchre

[lottidah]

Hi and thanks for the wonderful resource!

I have looked all over the net for this and can't find a thing.  

Looking for a round robin schedule for 3-player euchre.  Each table has three players, each playing against eachother, there are no teams.  Our group has nine players who meet for this tournament.  Trying to find a way to have each player play against all of the others without any repeating.

Any help or pointers would be so appreciated!

Thanks

Four rounds is enough to make sure that every player plays against all 8 other players exactly once.

For example:

Round 1 T1  1   8   2
         T2  7   9   3
         T3  5   6   4

Round 2 T1  4   2   7
         T2  6   8   9
         T3  1   5   3

Round 3 T1  9   5   2
         T2  1   7   6
         T3  4   3   8

Round 4 T1  1   4   9
         T2  7   5   8
         T3  3   6   2

Is that what you had in mind?

That's exactly what I was looking for.  Thank you so much.
