BIDDING

You bid how many tricks you think you'll get

Everyone bids at the same time, in secret, on how many tricks they think they'll take.

REVEAL

The bids only show once everyone has bid.

THE PLAY

Play your hand and take your tricks

You must follow suit. The highest card in the suit that was led takes the trick.

TRUMP

Pull the trumps

The card turned up decides trump. If you can't follow suit, you may trump.

ONE-CARD ROUND

Take a chance or play it safe

With 1 card you see everyone else's cards, but not your own.
