Players are divided into two competing partnerships, and partners sit across from one another. The deck consists of 80 cards--four copies each of the ace, ten, king, queen, and jack of each of the four standard suits.
Cards are shuffled and the entire deck is dealt out, giving each player a hand of 20 cards. The object of the game is to be the first partnership to score 500 or more points. If both sides reach 500 on the same hand, the side that made the highest bid on that hand wins the game. |
