Spades is a classic trick-taking card game played with a standard 52-card deck. To start, deal 13 cards to each player. The game is typically played with four players in teams of two. Each round, players bid on the number of tricks they think they can win. Spades are always the trump suit, meaning they outrank any other suit.

  • Bidding: Players decide on the number of tricks they aim to win.
  • Play: Follow suit if possible; if not, play any card. Spades trump other suits.
  • Scoring: Earn points for meeting bids; penalties for falling short or overbidding.

Enjoy mastering Spades with strategy and teamwork!
