Synopsis

Bridge is a trick taking card game using a standard deck of 52 cards used by 4 players in two competing partnerships. Partnerships sit opposite each other around a small square table. For purpose of scoring and reference, each player is identified by one of the major points of the compass and thus North and South play against East and West. The game consists of several deals. Each deal progresses through four phases: Dealing the cards, the auction (also called bidding), playing the hand, and scoring the results. Dealing the cards and scoring the results are procedure activities while the auction and play of the hand are two competitive phases of the game.
