After the war, veterans took advantage of the preferential right to study, so the peaks penetrated the student environment. In the army, simple peaks took root due to the fact that they were easy to interrupt at any time. The rise in popularity fell on the years of World War II, the soldiers transported the game around the world. Spades is a simplified version of bridge, so the rules were learned pretty quickly. When Frank and Mavis Kirkwood moved from Mississippi to New York in search of work, the game quickly spread throughout the country. Peaks were invented by the Kirkwood family in the late 30s of the last century. The goal of the game is to collect as many bribes as possible. The main difference of this game is that spades are always the trump card. Spades, together with bridge and preference, are part of the Whist family. In the United States, it is second only to poker in popularity. Trying this can be a somewhat risky move, since if another player gets just one of the hearts you will end up with lots of points.Spades is an American bribe card game. If you get ALL the penalty cards (thirteen hearts and the Queen of Spades) then you get zero points and all other players get 26 points each. Back to 'shooting the moon.' Typically it is not good to get penalty cards, but there is a circumstance where it can hugely benefit you.Play will continue until there is only one clear winner. If points are over 100 and there are 2 or more equal with the fewest points then

When one of the players reaches at least 100 points then the game is finished, and the player After all cards have been played, the penalty points are counted and the player with the smallest number of points wins.In the first round you may not play a heart or the queen of spades, even if you do not possess any.In this variation you can always play the queen of spades and it doesn't break hearts.

Any penalty cards (any hearts or queen of spades) the trick are added to the player's penalty score. This means he or she takes the 4 cards on the table and starts the next turn. Once 4 cards have been played, the player who played the highest ranking card takes the trick. If not, they can play any of their other cards. If they have a card in the same suit as the first card then that suit must be played.Then each of the players each plays one card. Each turn begins with one player laying a single card, which is called 'leading.' That card's suitĭetermines the suit of the trick.The player who has the 2 of clubs at the beginning leads in the first hand, and that player has to lead.For the third game you pass straight across the table and in the 4th game you keep your cards and do not pass any. Then, in the following game you pass to your opponent on the right. The opponent which you pass to varies (we'll handle that part for you), you start by passing to the opponent on your left. Typically it's best to pass your three worst cards to try and get rid of them. You'll then select three cards when the game begins to pass to one of the opponents.
