@bubbleyes72: Always have been a big spades fan.
Played in the Army, used to play at lunch at work for years a few different times.21 rings a bell, but don't recall it. Don't know if I ever heard of Bid Wisk. 4951

@FoFa: Bid wisk is almost like spade but the dealers partner can call trump based of her hand and you can have side bets too. this is a game for those who like to gamble, same as 21. 4951

We usually play "Oh Hell" if we have 4 or more people.5 or 6 or 7 is really a blast.It is a trump and bidding game (like spades).But the bidding is blind (3 count and hold out fingers for your bid)Dealer has to make the bid odd (can't bid the same as number of cards)After the cards are dealt, a card is turned over and that is trump.You start with 1 card, then 2, then 3 up to whatever number you can play or want to play.So with 5 people you can play up to 10 (have to have a trump card).Once you hit the high number, you work back down.So the first hand and the last hand both have 1 card.You make 10 points for making your bid, zero if you don't make your bid.You make 1 point for every trick you took IF you made your bid.So a zero bid, and no tricks taken is 10 points.A 2 bid with 2 tricks taken is 12 points.High score wins at the end.The game is aptly named. 4951
