This goal is reached by making bids and winning tricks to earn points. In doing so, your team will earn points towards their final score. 

SETUP AND BIDDING

The deck will need to be modified. All cards 5 and below are removed from the deck. This leaves a 36-card deck to use for the game. 

The first dealer is chosen at random but passes left after each new round. The dealer will shuffle the deck and the player to their right will cut the deck. Each player is dealt a hand of 9 cards clockwise. 

After the cards are deal players will start a round of bidding. The player to the left of the dealer starts and must bid at least 50. All bids must be in increments of 5 and a player must bid higher than the previous bid made. 

On a player’s turn to bid, they have 2 options; they may bid or pass. if passing a player is out of the round of bidding. If bidding players will continue to go around clockwise until 3 of the 4 players pass or a max bid of 440 is reached. The player who wins the bidding is now the declarer. 

The partner of the declarer will now choose three of their cards and hand them to their partner. The declarer will look at these cards and must set a contract. It must be at least as much as the last bid they made during betting. This is how many points their team must reach to win the round and score points. after setting the contract they will pass back any three cards to their partner, so all players once again have 9 cards in hand. 

If a player has three or more 6s or has no card higher than a jack in hand, they may on their turn to bid demands a redeal. In this case, all cards are collected and redealt.
