Bidding (card game)
The stimuli or bidding describes many card games (such as Skat , Binoculars , Bridge , Solo whist , Préférence , L'Hombre , Bauernschnapsen or most flavors of tarot ) used Provide or Increase to the game , so the privilege of the variety to decide to announce the trump suit and / or pick up any hidden cards ( talon , skat, dabb ).
The highest bidder is determined by increasing a bid or value (type of game, number of points to be achieved) by the bidder (in Skat the order: give - hear - say - pass on) by the person addressed (or the bidder) saying "pass". If the bidding is too high, this has negative consequences for the bidder or the addressee, often the loss of the game. Over-stimulating in bridge can also be a tactical maneuver in order not to treat the opponents to a high raffle.
