Yo anybody besides me ever get in the mood to play a good spades game??? Sometimes when you just coolin'[chillin', chillaxin, kickin it, hangin' out w/o much to do,etc.] pick up a deck of cards[yea u can go cop some @Walmart...or your neighborhood friendly conveinence store lols] & grab a partner[friend that also knows how to play] & get two opponents & sit down & go @it! Now there are different methods to playing: like when my mom winds her day down after a long day at work, she'll get to the computer & play internet spades @pogo.com[cut the check for the plug-in lols]. Or if you playing at a spades table in the house you can count the deuce[2] of spades as the third joker, when you takeout the 2's of diamonds & hearts & leave them in the box. And make sure before you start you have the rules clear, determine who keeps score, what score are you playing to, & if you play with bags[books made over what you bid, get 10bags & you lose 100 points], and distinguish the big joker from the little one[most decks have the print size to determine, the maverick is big & horse is lil', the big is in color verses the lil' being black&white, or do like folks in the hood or country & grab the scorekeepers pen & write BIG/LIL' on the cards to distinguish]. The first hand[first time everyone goes around] usually bids itself[meaning you don't have to bid together as a team, so however many books your team earns is how many points you get times 10]. Running a Boston means one team gets all 13 books on the 1st go & that's an automatic victory! You get ten points a book[winning the hand thats played] if you make what you & your partner decide to bid together as a team, & if your team bids 10 after the first hand & makes it then you get an additional 100points to the 100 you already earned making it 200 total[this would stink in a 250/350 game]! Okay so if you need further instructions on "playing spades"...then google it! But if you think you got what it takes, then sit on down with three friends, deal out the deck, & get it craccin'...I talk noise when I play too[so get prepared, esp. if I got a good hand...WHAT!?!?!] & don't let me have the big joker! OMG! ;-)
