The Aim of the Game Bridge
The goal of each pair of players is to achieve a higher score with the same cards.
Bridge: the Rules of the Game
Players sit in pairs opposite each other. Moreover, they are located on 4 cardinal points: The judge determines which direction the North is. In team tournaments, the composition of the pairs must remain the same throughout the game. In individual horizontal bars, the rules are not so strict. Here you can change partners after each session.
Each distribution can be divided into 2 stages: trading and drawing. Applications from players are accepted clockwise.
Preparation Stage for the Game
- When the players sit down at the table, there comes another crucial moment – the distribution of the deck. Moreover, only one participant is the dealer. How do you prepare for the game?
- To play bridge, you need a standard deck of cards. At the beginning of the game, participants receive 13 cards.
- The participant who deals in the rubber bridge deals the cards clockwise. He gives the first card to the person to his left. To facilitate the process, the dealer’s partner kneads the change. She will be played next. Now users who deal cards are swapped. The person on the left is designated as the dealer.
