If it looks like you will easily meat your joint trick goal it can make sense to throw off other cards and lay your Spades after someone else leads them. If you have many low Spades and a suit you have none of is thrown it can make sense to lay a Spade to try to take the trick.You can not lead Spades unless either the suit has already been broken by someone else laying a Spade on another trick or you have nothing but Spades remaining in your hand. Any Spade beats any card from any other suit. The suit which is led wins the hand unless someone else throws a Spade.The player who lays the first hand can lay any card they wish other than a Spade.Bags are worth a point each, but when you accumulate 10 bags you get 100 points deducted from your score. Each trick above your joint score is worth an additional point and is called a bag.There is no card passing in this game, so if you bid blind nil and see the Ace of Spades in your hand you are guaranteed to lose 200 points.If you do take any tricks you lose 100 points. If you look at your cards and think you can take no tricks you can bid “nil” and if you do not take any tricks you score 100 points.To bid blind nil you must bid it before looking at your cards. When a player bids blind nil they score 200 points if they do not get any tricks and they lose 200 points if they pick up even a single trick.
