Quickfire rules:

After the cards are dealt evenly between four players, the players, in turn, can “pass” or bid the number of tricks they believe their team can win above 6 in any suit, or “No Trumps”. The bidding proceeds like an auction, each player in turn can make a higher bid than the current winning bid or “pass”.

The player to the left of the Declarer makes the opening lead. Each player then plays one card in turn, following suit if they can. If they cannot follow suit they may play any other card in their hand, including a trump card. After a trick is won by the best card played, the player who took the trick leads the first card to the next trick. The aim for the winning bidding team is to take as many tricks as to at least win their contract. The other team is trying to win enough tricks to stop them.

After the opening lead, the Dummy's cards are turned face up for every player to see. The Declarer in the hand plays both their own cards and the Dummy's. If your team wins the contract, you will play both the Declarer and Dummy hands.

At the end of each round, the winning bidder's score contract points if they met or bettered their contract, or give “Undertrick” penalty points to their opponents. The “Rubber” is won by the team with the highest score after the first team wins two out of three games. The games are won when one team wins 100 contract points.

I find the bidding erratic

In one instance my partner jumped from 2NT to 4NT when he could have easily bid 3NT. Who does that? 3NT is game and there is no reason to go to 4NT unless he is inviting a slam. But our cards were just not there for a slam. And of course we could not even make the 10 tricks. 3NT was by far the better call. We would have completed our contract and had a game under our belt.

In other instances my partner would not go up to bid a game call and stop short at 3 hearts or 2 NT when all indications were that we could bid higher. And we made the extra trick in each case.

A little frustrating.

Classic bridge

I agree with the previous review. While playing I noticed that north has to pass about 90% of the time. He will almost never rebid a very good suit. But will support my suit with 2 cards or bid a 3 card suit. He will bid a three card suit and then rebid it even when he has a better suit. I fill like I am trying to play One against two. It is very frustrating. I am not sure if my partner is a person or a computer. He doesn’t seem to know much about bridge. I put in many knicknames and they are all taken.

I have been watching north hands when it is laid down. On one occasion he passed with 16 pts and a good long 6 suit but then supported my suit with 2. Who does that? I suspect he will do any thing to not play a hand. I kept watching and many times he could bid but doesn’t. He will also support my suit instead of naming his best suit even thought he has the points. I couldn’t imagine that one person could have to pass as many times as he or she or it does. It would be more fun for me if I could count on north’s bid, but it is very erratic. I am sorry to be negative, I actually enjoy playing the game even with the problems.

Doesn’t Follow Basic Principles

The AI players don’t follow basic classic bridge principles. The following observations were made while playing at the highest level.

Bidding: AI players don’t consider the score when bidding. Consider this example: A team has a 60 point part score. AI partner bids 1 heart. Partner bids 2 hearts, a minimum bid which would give the team 40 points and a game. For no reason, AI partner raises to 3 hearts. This bid is superfluous: it doesn’t invite to slam (an unlikely outcome) or enhance the game score—just makes it harder to achieve.

Playing: AI partners rarely return leads. Today, I had a hand wherein the opponents were playing spades. I had 4 high spades and a singleton queen of clubs. Had other high cards as well. A real chance to set opponents’ contract.

My AI partner’s opening lead was the ace of clubs. i played my queen, and waited for my partner to lead a club so I could trump. Instead, it shifted to diamonds where neither it nor I had a stopper. After the opponent pulled trumps and proceeded to make it’s contract, my AI partner threw a club which indicated that it didn’t do what an adept bridge player would have—relead the club.

After this review, I’m deleting this app.
