Example 3:

Player A:




★★

Player B:
★★★
★★★
★★★
★★★

★★★★★

No cards have a matching value in this example. However the cards that have the closest value are player a's cards and player b's ★★★ cards, so these cards may be swapped. The other cards have a higher gap in their value so the ★★ and the ★★★★★ card will not be included in the swap.


Why do this at all?
Overall, it makes TTT tournaments more fair and promotes a new strategy. For example, if players know that cards will be swapped like for like, they may choose to play a ★★★★★ or a ★★★ card they would not usually play in case of a swap, all while still being fair as the cards being swapped are around the same strength.
