Just as each trick in a successful bid is worth 10 points, each trick in an unsuccessful bid is worth -10 points. None of the won tricks are worth anything unless the bid amount is reached. If team A/C bids 8 and they win 7 tricks, their score is -80. When you fail to make your bid, you lose the value of your bid. So, after this hand the score is 61 to 60, with 1 bag to 0 bags.
They didn’t take any overtricks, which means they didn’t get any bags either. Each one is worth 10 points, so 6 X 10=60 points. They also bid 6 (3 & 3) and they were successful, taking 6 tricks. This overtrick also gives A/C one bag, which doesn’t affect them right now, but it will if they reach 10 bags.ī/D scores 60 points. They took one extra trick, an overtrick, beyond their bid, so this one is only worth 1 point. Their total bid was 6 (3 & 3), so they get 10 points for each trick won up to their bid amount-60 points. A/C win 7 tricks and B/D win 6 tricks.Ī/C scores 61 points. It doesn’t matter which person wins the tricks. Partners combine to make their total bid. When a side accumulates 10 bags they lose 100 points.
Each trick over your bid amount-called overtricks, overbooks, sandbags or bags-is worth only 1 point. In a successful bid, meaning you take at least as many tricks as you bid before the hand started, each trick up to your bid amount is worth 10 points.
