Bridge

[patandmegan]

Anyone know how to play bridge?  :OO More importantly, does any one know if Homer is planning on an auto for this game?  I know it'd be only for one badge but I always feel better paying Homer for my badges rather than pogo.

I got that badge really quick last night as someone else suggested doing it.  I've never even seen the game but heres what I did.  The 3 other computers never did make a bid so I had to bid. I only bidded 2 every hand. It was only 5 hands until I got the badge. I picked the suit that I had more stuff in. If it didn't look like a good hand (basing this on how you play spades) I just passed. You have to play your hand and your partners hand. It was weird. I was waiting for my partner to play but they never did. I played on one screen for both of us, which made it easy to take the tricks.  Just bid on a hand you have that looks like something good if you were playing spades ( not meaning you have to choose spade for trump) and just bid 2. If I can do it you can. I didn't even read the rules. When I picked my trump it took a minute for the game to start, I don't know why but it does. I had the badge in about 20 minutes or less.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Tara.  I tried playing yesterday (before reading your post) and I was bidding 5-6 and once I bid 1 but never won.  I'll try it your way and see what happens. 
Is the idea not to take more tricks than you bid?

Your welcome  :/\

OKay, I got the badge but I'm not sure if I should be offended or not.  It said I was vulnerable and that I won a rubber.
And we're all worried about MySpace ;)
