Ads

Can you please remove the Bubble Ad after a game has been won. It will not allow me to close it out without downloading it.

Also, Iโ€™m wondering why my East partner does not play the highest card when given the opportunity? I often lose as a result.

Not working for weeks!

Trying to play and the app fails! I have enjoyed the app for Years ! What is the issue!!? Iโ€™m trying to get the game back!!!!

Very predictable

I have played this game because itโ€™s a fairly decent game. However the partner does not know how to play the joker. Itโ€™s predictable that everyone will pass and I have to bid and I have three of everything. Every time I get two jokers the bid will be 4 no trump. The adds (as previously mentioned are horrible. Temu is the WORST and the game where the King usually doesnโ€™t get out is HORRIBLE.Finally I understand that advertising is the way to make money but some of the ads take a long long time. Please take time to algorithms so that the game is more competitive.

Interrupt to much

Way to many ads for my liking. Bid whist is a game of strategy and mental calculation. I've played for years but I'm looking for no ad games now.

Not fair

Sometimes when the opponent bids high it wonโ€™t allow you to make the low bid, ex: bid 4, counterbid 4 low. The game says I must bid a 5. Yet when I make a high bid it allows the computer to counterbid with a low. So Iโ€™m deleting this and trying another one.

FAQ

What is Bid Whist?

Bid Whist is a popular partnership trick-taking card game played with a standard 52-card deck plus two jokers. The game involves four players divided into two teams, with the objective of reaching a specific score or forcing opponents into negative scores by winning tricks, also known as books.

How do you bid in Bid Whist?

Bidding involves a number from 4 to 7, combined with a suffix like "uptown," "downtown," or "no trump." The number indicates the minimum number of books (tricks) your team contracts to win above six. For example, a bid of 5 means promising to win at least 11 books (6 + 5).

What are the different bid types?

There are three main bid types: "uptown" (or high) where you name a trump suit and high cards win; "downtown" (or low) where you name a trump suit and low cards win; and "no trump," where there is no trump suit, and you determine whether high or low cards have preference after winning the bid.

How is scoring handled in Bid Whist?

Points are scored by bidding for and winning tricks (books). Teams aim to reach a score of 7 or more points. Alternatively, a team can win by forcing the opposing team to go negative 7 or more points. Bids of "no trump" can double your points, whether you win or lose the bid.
