How to play Spades

  1. Spades are trump. Follow suit when possible. Spades cannot lead until broken unless you have only spades.
  2. Your partnership earns ten points per bid trick if you meet its combined bid, plus one per overtrick; missing costs ten per bid trick.
  3. Ten overtrick bags cost 100 points. A successful nil bid earns 100; a failed nil loses 100, and its tricks cannot meet the partnership bid. First team to 500 wins; tied teams play on.
