Ok I figured out how to play bridge. Now I think I can get to work on splitting an atom.
:)
Skat is much, much harder, at least when it comes to the rules.
Hey this isn't so complicated! I don't know what people are talking ab...(begins talking about points) *brain melts*
I think both watching the video and reading sort of helped me. Playing hands on online can help too.

The point scoring does seem...unnecessarily obtuse...by several degrees
This is so interesting and very complicated. You need to remember 52 cards, and plus 52 tricks.

@@GenerationNextNextNext too much advertising on this
I'm definitely gonna come back when I'm high on pot, might just be able to keep track.
Yes, Bridge is VERY addicting. I have been playing for over 50 years. You will always be learning the game. The important thing is to start now..
50yrs? That's impressive and worrying at the same time
I'd love to but I'm too confused about the rules. I found out about it when i found a point chart in a deck I bought.
The rules don't seem very complex? Why will I alwasy be learning the game. This video was great. I don't know what people are talkigna bout saying this game is very hard to learn. I wish I had been taught it years ago. I think I mgith start playign it at the ripe old age of 50 :)
@@jenniferw8963 Yes, the general rules are simple, BUT there are many bidding conventions that are used in the game that really can complicate the bidding portion of the game. If you are a person that has, what I call, "card sense", you will probably not have a problem with the game, But if you don't have "card sense" you will find it difficult. A challenging game played well. I am 78 and still enjoy the game and play at least once a week and have also played duplicate bridge, the ultimate form of bridge.
@@randylouisxiv2481 I wish I had grew up in a family that played bridge.. I know our family used to spend the entire days on the weekend sometimes playing spades. I am sure I would of loved bridge :) Gonna try and get into it now.. What's the best app to play against the computer to learn it?
I love Agatha Christie's books, I started reading them last year. Right now, I'm reading Cards on the Table, which is centered around Bridge. I couldn't understand much of their jargon, so I came to this video. The scoring is really hard, but now I basically know what they're talking about. Thanks!
I too am a big fan of Agatha Christie's books and how she works a game of cards into the clues. I just got done reading Cards on the Table too.
Ohmy! Same, I just recently read Agatha Christie and she was amazing, I couldn't help but learn the whatevers in her books!!!!
I love the film too, with David Suchet. Veeery well made!
OMG NO WAY! I wanted to play because they were playing bridge in “curtain poirots last case”!
Lol same currently reading cards on the table 😅😅
Thanks for this. Used to play Bridge weekly with same group (4 of us) and sometimes played all night - before we knew it was morning :) In those days there was no TV.I have forgotten a lot but want to get a group of 'oldies' together to play it again.So this is nice to get my bearings again and teach a little group.
Hi Geeta, I don't know if you're interested or not, but there's a site called "Play OK" which has several card games. It's not required that you join and it's free and one of the games is bridge. It might be an easy way for you to sharpen up? I don't play bridge but I'd like to learn. My mother was a tournament bridge master and always tried to get me interested but I was too young and cocky. Yes, we do LEARN through the years! I'm a woman "of a certain age" myself. Best of luck in finding a nice group and maybe the OK site would be a nice diversion from time to time. I play spades there so that's how I know about it. Best to you.
also you can play in Brdge base online, this is an official bridge page and also when you use the part of just play bridge, explains you what are the meanings of each sing

I've played 500 for years but never played Bridge. The fact that the winner plays their partners hand is strange. In 500 you have that element of guesswork of having to play low and such to figure out your partners hand.This video was great!
Thanks to that bridge is a very stratigic game. You can carefully plan your play. And opponents have precious information to make the declarer to fail.
I feel overwhelmed from this video. But sure I'll learn the game someday.
There is too much jargon in this video. Its easier if this came with a pre-tutorial or some guide on what all these jargons mean. I was 5 minutes into it and I realised its easier to download from app store and just go through the trial by fire. Seems like few (or none) of the bridge tutorials cared enough to coach on the jargons. .... Its very annoying indeed.
Me too. This game is way more complicated than algebra, no matter how many tutorials I sit thru. I guess my cognitive impairment (I'm mildly mentally-challenged) makes me unable to understand bridge.
@@firstpeter31822 you are not retarded you just learn differently ..try playing it since instructions are hard to understand
@@tabularasa9576 Aww! Thank you :) You're right. Instructions are quite a challenge. It seems like the only people who understand them are the ones who wrote them. I'm more of a hands-on kind of learner.

I bought a book on how to play bridge. I don’t need it after watching this. A big fat thanks to you.!
Thank you for the video! I found it reasonably straightforward; except for the scoring, that is. I've wanted to learn how to play this game since the first time I read "Cards on the table" some twenty years ago, but never got around to researching it until now. Unfortunately, I think I'll have to do a more in depth research to really understand the premise of the book, but this was a great foundation!
That's exactly why I'm watching this video. Tbh, i wasn't too happy with the book since he deduced their psychology from the bridge scores since I don't know how the game works. Plus, there was something cheap about spotting a killer from how they play bridge.
good luck - i have a couple of beginner ideos on bidding.
Excellent Video. Well written, good graphics and voice-over. Thanks, greatly appreciated.
Good graphics?
My mother was an avid bridge player while I always found it a confusing mystery, but watching this video, I now think I could learn to play!
go for it...i have plenty of free videos on my channel.
Bridge is easy to learn, very hard to master :) But I believe almost everybody can reach a decent level.
Thanks for the video, it cleared things up for me a lot!
Lately there‘s a pretty popular game in german stores called „wizard“ and it‘s basically bridge but with a smaller hand size and no teams. It‘s amazing
Great explanation, thank you so much! The example at the end really helped!
Very good video. I have not played bridge for quite a few decades but I'm going to be called upon to do so in a few months. This is a good memory device for me, though it will take a good deal of concentration to get my creaky knowledge back in condition. This is a good start. Thank you

When I was eleven years old I was taught the dominoes game of "42" at a family reunion by my relatives from the New Mexico/Texas border who played it all the time. Once I caught on I loved it immediately, and only wish I had more opportunities to play. But not until watching this video did I realize how similar its rules of play are to the card game of bridge. Sure, bridge has its own more complicated scoring system, and there is no dummy hand in 42, etc, but there are nonetheless major similarities between the two games. Good to know! Thank you, GTG, for this video of explanation.
This is an excellent video for a novice! Thank you so much for making it!
Voted: good tutorial. Thank you!
Well explained. Thank you!
To understand any bidding game, learn first SPADES.
Great point. I'd recommend the same
Or contract wist.
@@btd836 Contract (aka bid) whist is the real king!
@@DeadnWoon I love it. The version I learnt growing up is starting hand has 13 cards each, next hand has 12 working your way down to 1, then back up again. Rotate tricks C, D, H S, no trumps. End on a 13 cards NT. Opportunity for big score with a good hand to pip someone at the post. You can also opt to not the shuffle between hands, just put to the bottom of the deck. Then there's an element of recall with your contract bidding. Will the Queen in your hand be a winner, probably if the ace and King were played within the last hand or two. Worth a try at some point when you play.
@@btd836 whist is good to know for bridge for sure - but there are a lot more intricacies in bridge that whist players wouldn't have a clue about.
R.I.P Otis. He never got to play Bridge on that fateful night at Black Mesa.
Scoring system is so complicated, that it reminds me of Chandler's Cup game.
underrated comment!!
My grandmother and her Bridge Mafia would play at her house every Friday afternoon. The game moved up and down the street everyday and I was the tea and biscuit girl. I got to hear some of the best gossip about town.

Thank you for explaing this!!
Here in the Nordic countries we play a game called "Amerikaner" (American), Bridge is a close relative, though a little simpler.
1. Suits Rank and Trump Rank works the same.
2. Card distribution is the same.
3. Keep cards hidden is constant throughout the game.
4. Bidding is a little different. You pick a trump to base the bid on, as well as other strong cards. If you have the highest bid, you play the lowest ranking trump card you have, and ask for the highest trump card you don't have. Everyone need to follow the same suit. The player who had the card you requested becomes your team mate, and the suit is now established as the trump. The other players play solo. When placing a bid, you only say how many tricks you believe you can take. You can gamble to win the bid by getting a good team mate, or you can pass to break down the team who got the bid. The highest bid is "Amerikaner" (American) where you need to win all tricks, which gives 52 points, or negative 52 points if you fail.
5. You do not get bonus points for extra tricks, unless you get them all (13) which result in 25 points. Otherwise you get the amount of points related to the bid. If your team win a bid of 8, you and your teammate get 8 points each. The other players get 1 point for each trick they bring in. If you fail, you get negative points.
6. First player to reach 52 points, win.
I just graduated college and I'm about to go play with my Aunt for the first time! It was too complicated when I was a kid, but this was really clear and thorough, thanks!

Bridge is a tall mountain to climb. This vid provides a basic intro. Would be helpful to introduce the bidding over 6 tricks concept earlier, plus include other terms like rubber, ruffing, etc..

Best to learn the game when you are young. Too difficult to learn when you are already 70. This is Bill Gates and Warren Buffett's passion.

Players that want to learn Bridge should learn "Spades" first. It has similar mechanics but with a much simpler scoring system.
2:09 So when you refer to subsequent bids, are you talking about in subsequent rounds when a new hand is dealt or when players lay down cards?
I see now why Bridge has such a devoted following. After the 5 years it will take you to learn how to score the game, you really need to keep playing to make your time investment worth it.
It is excellent. Thanks

You stated, "The player sitting to the left of the Dealer is first to bid." That's a new one on me! I was taught that the Dealer gets to make the first bid.
Yep, you're correct (though they correct it on the website, to their credit.)

Good tutorial. Also playing online can help strengthen and reinforce strategy like always lead high cards like aces and throw off good count for your partner when they will be taking the trick. I find the most challenge to be remembering what trump was and which cards the opponent has played.
Scoring is the biggest challenge of all.
No! Don't always lead aces and high cards. There are rules for what to lead against what contract.
i actually have a video on why you don't lead an unsupported ace.
@@hostdad2186 i made a video on this point on my channel.
I told that AI generator that was trending to give me a link to a Toad Patrol episode and it gave me the link to this. Nice video!
You mentioned in the video that the player to the left of the dealer has the first bid. Where I play the dealer always has the First bid. I have never played bridge where the dealer does not have the first bid!
In high school we spent our lunch hour playing a card game called Trumps. Seeing this I realized it's a much simpler game of Bridge, which I thought was so complicated. Players bid on the number of packs or cribs they could take and whomever won the bid named Trumps. The partner would either be happy because they had lots of trumps or groan because they didn't. If the Trump caller couldn't take the announced cribs they would lose. One game per round. No further score keeping

In footloose we play bridge, so the bridge club cast is actually gonna learn how to play bridge so we can play it on set
I've played bridge for a number of years and am annoyed by the inaccuracies/omissions in this tutorial, I'm sorry. Bridge is a very standardized game with very well agreed-upon rules.
1:38 - dealer themselves begins the bidding.
3:32 - the first person of the partnership who bid that trump wins the contract. If I open 1 heart and my partner raises to 4 hearts, I declare because I said hearts first.
9:52 - South is entitled to another call here. A call (including an opening pass - everyone is guaranteed one turn at the auction) needs to be followed by three passes in order for the auction to end.
10:25 - Ticky-tack, but the rules changed a few decades ago to make the 4th non-vul undertrick and beyond change to -300 apiece (avoids absurdly cheap sacrifices against a grand slam)
10:47 - The team that MADE THE ORIGINAL BID can redouble at their turn. Also to note, if your partner doubled/redoubled a bid, you can't double/redouble that same bid.
11:47 - fine for a starter strategy, but be prepared that most American partnerships agree to insist on having 5 hearts or 5 spades to OPEN that suit (responding is different). Makes it easier to find a 5-3 fit in those important suits. To anyone reading this, there's a lot to bidding strategy the video didn't cover, which is fine, but just know you'll need to seek that out elsewhere
Another thing is that your scoring explanation gets way into the weeds with bonuses, leaving a lot of this comments section confused.
The ONLY part of scoring anyone really needs to know offhand is
- *The trick score* (20 for "minor suits", 30 for "major suits", 40/30/30 for NT)
- *The fact that 100 points is game*
Keep game in mind at all times! If you're the side with good cards, get your money's worth and get to game if you can.
A primer on your objectives when bidding, which I wish the video had covered. How to get there is a whole other can of worms.
- *HOW HIGH?* Do we have game (or rarely, slam)? Or should we settle for less than game, a part-score? If you haven't scored towards game in a previous hand, a good guideline is 25 or 26 points between you as partners for game in 3NT/4H/4S. (tip: add 1 pt for each 5-card suit you have, 2 pts for each 6 card suit, 3 pts for 7 cards, etc. You'll bid more games and have more fun that way.)
- *WHERE?* An 8-card fit in hearts or spades (major suits) is ideal. Otherwise, try No Trump if you're collectively reasonably balanced like in the example. If you're concerned about them taking too many tricks in their suits, settle for a minor suit to protect yourself.
@@j0habba I wish I understood your question - sorry for the delay. 😔
@@j0habba The suits are ranked in order as mentioned in the video. The pair who bids to the highest level- in the highest suit- has determined which suit is trump. So, if one pair has found a fit in Clubs, the lowest ranking suit, and the other pair is bidding Hearts, a higher ranking suit, the Heart pair is likely to get the bid thereby naming trump. The Club pair will always have to bid one more to get above the Heart to get the bid. If everyone is bidding that becomes risky. So if my partner and I bid 2 Hearts (meaning we think we can take 8 total tricks provided Hearts are trump) the other pair has to bid 3 Clubs (taking 9 total tricks). Once the bidding has ended by 3 players in row passing, the trump is set.
trying!
Thanks
My school used to have a Bridge Club but they got rid of it :(. Such a shame, it was really fun
Why don't you start another one then?
Agatha Christie's novel brought me here
I am going to read it so decided to see the rules
They are fucking insane.
Is it ‘Cards on the table’? I fucking love that book.
Hercule Poirot and his bridge clues to solve the murder. Sometimes I think the game of bridge can lead to murder.
Wow, first time learning this game and I had no idea bridge was played like spades.
Spades is touch football, Bridge is pro football
@@spartanrh83 as in, the players are all brain damaged?
If you are good at spades bridge is a fairly easy leap. If you are good a bridge, you can clean up at spades as long as your partner is also a bridge player. Bridge uses signal cards when you discard to advise your partner of what suit you would like them to play. For instance, if you are out of the suit your partner led, and they are taking the trick, if you slough a higher cared in a suit you are asking for that suit to be led next. In bridge everyone at the table sees these signals and they all know what they mean so it's not cheating. In spades it's a little bit of a gray area, but my wife and I may have played together and done very well.
here is some basic bidding theory for you: ua-cam.com/video/cpCLLAzvveE/v-deo.html

There’s bridge club in my school and it’s really fun
I’ve heard that bridge is hardest card game ever. When I first saw the tutorial I was shocked. But then I figured out that this game is not diffrient than whist or spades. Basics and bidding are peice of cake and keeping score part was so easy. Kids, dont think that this game was hard. If it’s hard for you whatch the video again and then go to a peaceful place to think about what you watched!
I've heard that quantum physics is hardest science ever. When I first saw the documentary I was shocked. But then I figured out that this science is no different than Psychology or Biology.

@@FinalDeity is that some kind of copypasta?
Whist was the precursor to bridge. Bridge, like many games, is fairly easy to learn the basic game. The challenge is that there is always more to learn. There are all sorts of odd fake bids, called conventions, where you are telling your partner stuff about your hand without making real bids. I have played for about 45 years and do very well without using all the crazy stuff that's out there.
Unbelievable, Dude. Your video already hit 1M. LOLOLOL
Guess all viewers are like me to learn the basic to the advance class before hitting Las Vegas. Hahaha...
what is a TRICK?.....in this video..
Seems like scoring is the complicated aspect of this game😂
As someone familiar with the trumps concept, the gameplay seems quite straight forward
Been playing free cards games on 24/7, got spades, euchre and hearts nailed. Sooo...
Decided to try bridge for a new challenge, played about an hour, can't say say I know how I did it
but I just won with 1,070 points, a bunch of bonus points and something about a rubber bridge ;)
Sure wish I knew what that means and how I did it. LOL
I may have a new infatuation, though I wish I could play with people to be able to ask questions, it would probably be easier. The points business is just crazy.
I watched the video and am now ready to enter a bridge tournament
Yeah, no
@@hostdad2186 no, yeah
Daoming Si here I come!
Lol...
Great video, thank you! I did not understand, why for winning 4 hearts/spades one gains far more points then for winning 3 hearts/spades. The same for 5 clubs/diamonds and 3 NT. COuld you please explain it?
Hey, these are called "game" contracts. Making game will award bonus points. This is the same for slam (6-7 level)
In a major suit- hearts and spades- each trick is worth 30 points. 4 tricks x 30 points = 120 points. You need 100 points to get a bonus of 300 points for a game. If you bid 3 hearts that's only 90 points. There are points toward your game score( below the line) and bonus points (above the line) If you bid 3 and made 4 you get 90 towards your 100 needed for game and 30 bonus. The 90 is called a "leg". The problem is that on the next hand the other team could get the bid and make a game bid and cut off your leg. It is always preferable to bid game if you think you will be able to make it. In clubs and diamond- minor suits- the tricks are only worth 20 points each. 5 x 20 =100. No trump is fancy. The first trick is worth 40 points and each subsequent trick is worth 30, 40+30+30=100 Most good bridge players will look for a way to bid 3 No trump if possible. That way you only have to take 9 total tricks instead to 10 or 11. A game bid in a minor suit is tough to make. I hope this helps a bit.
At 9:15, where does the "+630" come from? The points total 1500, right?
Is there any way that you could do a tutorial on BID WHIST? please and thank you
