A rarity worth preserving - a sensible, coherent post from the dawg! 1. Make friends with the pass button (a dafferism).
2. Score dictates bidding.
3. Fortune favours the brave.
4. Generally play out trumps if your side has the bid.
5. Generally never lead trumps back at opposition who won the bid.
6. Third plays high (ie 2nd often can play low/finesse).
7. Fourth plays to win the trick.
8. Never (rarely) leave partner on an ace call - if nothing else call 7spds.
9. 9 spds for open - call ur lowest suit or 9NT to signal bird/high.
10. Be careful when finessing.
11. When in opposition and trumps are still in play, first discard is generally to short yourself in the hope that your partner wins the trick and leads back.
12. Don't lead the joker first trick when you have won a NT bid.
13. If your partner has an Ace, and you have a low and the king, risk leading the king first and then lead to your partners ace and hope he has a few more tricks up his sleeve.
14. Never lose an unforced misere.
15. Dont call 8 if u cant defend open.
16. At the beginning of the game, try to not be first to go negative unnecessarily.
