Which table you pull up to at the cookout/family reunion/kick back

Spades. I wouldn't trust @dora_da_destroyer to not cut me out doe. Or have a hand full of Spades and lead with a 10 of heart while the opp runs 3 straight books before she plays the Ace of Spades and ran em back to back.

Depends on when I get to the function. If the spades table is open, that’s my first choice. If the dominoes table is open after I check spades, that’s where I’m going!

Either way, I’m slamming something! Lol

I never learned how to play spades so dominoes by default. My dad had a set and taught me when I was a kid.

I do well in Dominos, but I usually have more fun with Spades.

In Dominos you always got that one nikka taking all day to count points.

Dude: lotta money on the board, gimme a second here.

Bones


I never learned how to play spades growing up. Learned the rules when I was in the Navy. So I know how to play the game but there is way more to it than that.

There is a whole set of unspoken rules and etiquette that I routinely fukk up when playing. I got cussed out too many times so I simply quit playing

I learned to late in life and trying to get somebody to actually teach me is like pulling teeth.


I can count Bones all day tho

Here we go.

13 cards in each suit.

If you have 3 hearts, then there are 10 hearts out there. Meaning everybody else has about 3 hearts (10 ÷ 3). If you have the A, K, and 6.. the A gonna walk. The K prolly walk. Forget about the 6.

If you have 7 hearts, there's another 6 out there. (6 ÷ 3). Therefore everyone has about 2 hearts. If you have the A... it MIGHT walk. Or the next niqqa has zero hearts and is cutting off top. That A would be considered "a possible" but I don't do possibles. I would't even bid the A in that case.

The rest is paying attention. Let's say you have 2 hearts including the Q. Niqqas throw the A and the K and you duck off the 5. Now the Q can comfortably walk.

Not just cause it's the next highest.If you have 2 hearts then everyone else has about 3 (11÷3). Therefore the Q is prolly good.

Also. If you have 2 hearts, you might cut hearts early on. Again.. a "possible" but when you're decent at this way of counting you may count it depending on the other details.
