We, our euchre club play 5 handed this way. We use one deck of cards using ace, king, jacks, 10s, 9s, and 8s and sevens. Each player keeps own score to 10. deal the cards as in regular euchre. turn kitty card up. Go around each player to see if anyone would order it up. If no one orders up, then go around again to determine if anyone wants to make trump. Once trump is determined, then maker will ask for highest card he needs, usually one of top three cards. The player who has the trump asked for will be partner. Same rules apply. The maker of trump has to make 3 tricks to get one point. If he or she makes all tricks, then they get 3 points. Euchre is still 2 points. There is 3 persons trying to euchre the team of two.
