Deal and bidding

In the 29 Card game online, Deal and Play are anti-clockwise. Cards are distributed in two steps, four cards in every step. Based on the first four cards, players bid for the right to choose trumps. The normal bidding range is 16 to 28. The bid winner chooses a trump suit based on his or her four cards. The trump-card is not shown to the other players, who therefore will not know at first what suit is the trump.

Twenty Nine Gameplay

The highest card of the suit lead wins the trick, and the winner of each trick leads to the next. Players must follow suit if possible: if unable to follow, they may play a trump card or discard a card of another suit, as they like.

Scoring

When all eight tricks have been played, each side counts the card points in the tricks it has won. The bidding team needs at least as many card points as they bid to win; otherwise, they lose, adjusted for a declaration of a Pair if appropriate, they win one game point; otherwise they lose one game point. The score of the team playing against the bidder does not change.

In this case, there is no trump, the player who announced 'single hand' leads to the first trick, and the partner of the lone player places his or her hand face down and takes no part in the play. The lone player's team wins 3 game points if all eight tricks are won, and loses 3 points otherwise.
