Publisher's Synopsis
Everything you've always wanted to know about the game of Spades and more Welcome! This book is dedicated to the ladies (and of course guys who are willing to set their pride aside)! I will mainly be talking about the 3 phases of winning at the game of Spades! If you're interested in moving up to the ultimate level of expertise in the game of Spades, this book is for you! Upon completion of this book, "you and your spade partner" will be virtually unbeatable. You will be taught moves others have not yet seen before. Opponents will be amazed at how well you're able to predict their movements while disguising your own. Allow me to open by saying that people play the game of Spades by different rules. If one of the rules you play by is that "you cannot break, or play spades until someone has cut, or trumped a Heart, Diamond, or Club," then STOP HERE...! This book is not for you! This book is for Serious Spade Players only; those players who are ready to advance to the next level! Rule #1 for serious spade players is that Spades may be played at anytime! Now that we've gotten that breach to the game of spades out of the way we can move forward. The most important thing for you as a reader of this book is to select, or designate one person as your "steady" partner; someone you can rely on to sit with you at least 95% of the time. The more you sit and play as partners, the more you'll learn how each other plays and thinks. This book is not for the faint of heart, but again for "Serious Spade Players Only!" Although we will cover "some" basics of the game, this book is designed with the idea that participants understand the "very" basics. We will not be discussing such thing as, knowing the rank structure of face cards i.e., that ACES outrank Kings; KINGS outrank Queens, and QUEENS outrank JACKS in that order. If you have questions about the basics, STOP HERE! You are not ready for this book. Not only will we cover very little of the basic, but this book is designed to bring the INTERMEDIATE players to the level of an ADVANCED player in part 2 of this book. So without further due, we will begin our lessons on the topic of The Ultimate "Mind-Set" of winning.
