THE BIDĮach player looks at their hand and then determines how many tricks they believe they can take. The discard pile is placed to the side and ignored until the next hand. This process is repeated until each player has a hand of thirteen cards. If they don’t want it, then they discard it and immediately take the next card. If they keep it, the next card immediately goes to the discard pile. They draw a card and then choose to keep it or discard it. Cards may not be drawn from the discard pile If the player does not want the card they drew, then they discard it and must keep the second card. If the player keeps it, then the next card is immediately placed face-up on the discard pile. They may then choose to keep that card or place it face up in the discard pile. The non-dealer draws a card from the top of the pile. Shuffle the deck and then place it in the center of the playing space. Each player will take turns building their hand of thirteen cards – one card at a time. What separates two-player spades from the classic version is how the hands are created.
While Spades is traditionally a team-based game for four players, this two-player version is also quite enjoyable. Players are penalized for taking too few as well as too many. Spades for 2 players is a wonderful trick-taking game that challenges players to determine precisely how many tricks they believe they can take. OBJECTIVE OF SPADES FOR 2 PLAYERS: Be the first player to score 500 points NUMBER OF PLAYERS: 2 players NUMBER OF CARDS: Standard 52 card deck, no jokers RANK OF CARDS: 2 (low) – Ace (high), Spades always trump TYPE OF GAME: Trick taking AUDIENCE: Adults
