INTRODUCTION OF SPADES FOR 2 PLAYERS

Spades for 2 players is a wonderful trick-taking game that challenges players to determine precisely how many tricks they believe they can take.  Players are penalized for taking too few as well as too many.  While Spades is traditionally a team based game for four players, this two-player version is also quite enjoyable. 메이저놀이터

THE CARDS & THE DEAL

What separates two-player spades from the classic version is how the hands are created.  There is no deal in this game.  Each player will take turns building their hand of thirteen cards – one card at a time.

Shuffle the deck and then place it in the center of the playing space. 

The nondealer draws a card from the top of the pile.  They may then choose to keep that card or place it face up in the discard pile.

If the player keeps it, then the next card is immediately placed face up on the discard pile.  If the player does not want the card they drew, then they discard it and must keep the second card.  Cards may not be drawn from the discard pile

The second player then does the same.  They draw a card and then choose to keep it or discard it.  If they keep it, the next card immediately goes to the discard pile.  If they don’t want it, then they discard it and immediately take the next card.  This process is repeated until each player has a hand of thirteen cards. 

The discard pile is placed to the side and ignored until the next hand.

THE BID

Each player looks at their hand and then determines how many tricks they believe they can take.  Spades are always trump in this game.  The nondealer bids first.  They may bid from zero to thirteen tricks. 

Bidding zero is called going nil.  This means that the player thinks they will not take any tricks.  Special points are awarded for going nil successfully. 

When a player thinks they can take all thirteen tricks, that’s called shooting the moon.  Special points are awarded for shooting the moon successfully.

Players do not have to over bid each other.  Each player simply states how many tricks they think they can take. The scorekeeper must then write the bids down.

THE PLAY

The nondealer leads first.  They choose a card and play it to the center.  To begin with, spades cannot be played until that suit is broken.  Spades are broken when a player is unable to follow suit or only has spades left in their hand.
