Vary fr-w irsnvs have ttlnw1 the same
eopulsrlty In shirt Mm a. five hundrrd.
tts favor Is probably du to the fpt thnt
It l II mmr which In peculiarly a,iltd to
players of widely dlff'rtn power. end
then It Is one of the very few ;ood gramcs
for three parsons.
Slnre ita ftrnt Intrnrturllnn to the curd
pluylns; world five or mx years acn five
hundred has undergone n number of
Chnnses for the brtter. By dr-aws the
conflicting; laws whlrh have appeared: In
varloua tejt hooka have been changed tn
succeeding edltlona until now the booka
1 axe all In accord but one. and the publish
ers of that one are promising to fall Into
j line with their rent Untie, whlrh will be In
i the mrly 'a". The standard Bm, aa It
la now played In all first-class cluha and
; wherever tourtiairenla are held, will prob
ably remain, without any further change
: for many yeara.
I Although flva hundred la essentially a
game for three playera. four msr take
part; either two against two aa partner.
; or fcy the arrangement which demands that
tha dealer ahall take no carda.
The atandard pack for three playera la
' thirty-two carda and the Joker. In plain
suits the carda rank from the are down to
the aeven. In the trump ault the Joker Is
alwaya the beat trump, the Jack of the
trump ault la the aecond beat or right
bower, the Jack of the aame color la the
third best or left bower, and then come the
ce. king, queen and ten. eo that there are
alwaya ten trumpa.
Joker Suit by Iteelf.
THien there la no trump ault the Joker
becomea a ault by Itself end there are four
plain aulU of eight carda each. In thla
respect the Joker very cUeff resembles
the four Jacka In a grando In game of
akat; In fact. It would avoid a great deal of
misunderstanding If a no trumper were
called a grando In Ml. as It aeema absurd
to call It no trumper when there la a
trump ault. rven If that auit be only one
card.
The holder of the Joker l not allowed
to trump with It aa long as he can follow
ault. If he leads the Joker he may name
tha ault which ahall be played to the lend,
tout he cannot name any particular card
of that ault
When four play ten cards are added to
the pack. These carda are the sixes, fives
and two of the fours, usually the ma.a
ones, so that they may be the more easily
recollected. In cutting for the first deal,
and for partnera. when four play, low wine.
Acea are high and the Joker la the lowest
card In the pack In cutting.
No matter how fnany play, the cards are
alwaya dealt In the aame way, three at a
tlma for the first round and then three laid
out face down for the widow, then four
each, ao that the full pack Is dealt out
There are alwaya three carda In the widow
and ten carda In each playing hand. It la a
misdeal to give a different number of carda
in the aame round, or to deal for the widow
at the wrong time.
Bidder Names Tramp.
The Interesting part Of five hundred Is
the bidding for the privilege of naming
the trump and playing against the two
other peraona at the table. Each player
In turn, beginning with the one on the
dealer's left, haa a right to make a bib.
There are no aecond blda, and If the player
does not wish to bid at all he can pass.
If all paea without bidding, It la a grando,
or ne trumper, each man for himself.
The bidder must name the number of
tricks he will undertake to win, playing
single handed against the two others, and
he must name the ault that he will make
the trump, or ear that he "will play with
out a trump. No bid of leea than alz

trlrka Is allowed and the usual eiprea
alons are: "Keren In hearts" of "el In
no trumpa."
Several different tables of values have
been used from time to time In varloua
psrts of the country. In aome of theee
tablea the suits rank one way and tn aome
another, but the Influence of the bridge
playing element seems to have gradually
worn down all opposition and the suits
now rank In five hundred as they do In
brldse, spadea, cluha, diamonds, hearts and
no trumps.
Each suit has a unit value In points for
a bid of sis trliks. and If the player will
commit these five-unit values to memory
he wi;i have the whole table by heart, be
cauao this unit value is added for each
additional trick bid In thnt suit. The
Initial value of the lowest bid In clubs, for
Instance. Is 0, and ad SO Is added for each
trick beyond six, we get for seven In clubs,
ISO for eight In clubs and so on.
Scoria Tela of nidi,
The following table shows the scoring
value of all the bids possible at the game:
No. of Tricks Bid. 7 JO
fipnrtoa fl 1
t-luba 1 ? sn"
Diamonds . 'l 2 320 "
Hearts 1' 2" " "
No trump 1 2 w
There la In use In the middle west an
other table which was designed to avoid
the occurrence of duplicate values, ijhls la
called the Avondale schedule, and' it Is
based on the principle that If we start with
the same Initial value for bids of six tricks
as those In the schedule Just given, but
advance 100 points at a time for each, ad
ditional trick, regardless of the ault we
shall get a table In which there are no
two bids of the aame counting value In
the score. Each bid wilt be twenty point
higher than the one before It, aeven in
spades', for instance, being twenty points
higher than six at no trumps. This la the
full schedule: ,
No. of Tricks Bid. 6 7 10
Spades 40 140 340 HO 440
flubs 9) 160 2) 30 4W
I'lamonda SO 10 20 Sw 4X0
Hearts W0 200 3"0 400 600
No trump 120 220 SiO U9 630
Thla schedule haa never come Into gen
eral use, probably because its Inventor
made the common mistake of copyrighting
It and so preventing others from UBlng It.
The table of values first given Is the
standard, although In aome places they
atlll play what la called the reveraed
schedule, In which the suits rank clubs,
spades, hearts, alamonGs and no trumps.
This Is now quite out of fashion.
When the Avondale echedule la used
there Is no question as ot which of two
blda Is the higher, but In the ordinary
schedule there are a number of equalities;
eight In diamonds, 210, for Instance, la the
same as seven In no trumps.
The rule In such cases is that the player
who offers to take the greater number of
tricks to make the same number of points
shall have the preference. A smaller num
ber of tricks In one ault will outbid a
greater number In another ouly when the
point value of the bid is greater. Six in
no trumps, for Instance, Is better than
seven In spades because It Is worth forty
points more.
Bidder Take Widow.
The highest bidder takes the three cards I
In the widow without showing them and
then discards three cards, face down, so
aa to reduce hia playing hand to ten cards.
He then leads any card he pleases for the
first trick, no matter who dealt. If no one
haa made a bid no one touches the widow
and the player to the left of the dealer
leads first.
Each player in turn must follow ault if
he can, but no one Is obliged to win a
trick If he does not wish to and can avoid
It without revoking. The penalty for a
revoke Is the Immediate lose of the amount
bid, If It la the bidder who Is In error,
and the hand la at once abandoned. The
bidder Is set back and the others score
what tricks they have made up to that
time.
If an adversary of the bidder revokes
the bidder cannot be aet back, even If he
falla to make good, but he must be allowed
to score what he bid. The individual
player In error cannot score anything, but
the other player may acore for whatever
trlcka he haa taken up to the time the
revoke waa claimed and proved.
if the Joker Is led In a trump declaration
It Is the beat trump, and trumpa must be
played to it. Beginners should be careful
to place the left bower with their other
trumps, or they may forget that it la a
trump and revoke.
tt the Joker la led when there In no
trump the leader la at liberty to name eny
ault to be played to It, whether he holds
any carda of that suit or rrot. and even if
he had previously renounced In that suit.
Failure to play a card of the ault called for
on a Joker led, when one la held, la a
revoke.
When four play aa partnera the one that
makea the highest bid takea the widow and
leada for the first trick.
Most Play Hands Oat.
Every hand must be played out and each
Indlvudual player must take In hla own
trlcka. The scores are kept on pads ruled
for the purpose, one eolumn tnr h
player, and the result of the play la Dut
down at the end of each hand.
If the bidder makea as many tricks aa
he undertook to win he scorns the value
of hla bid. He cannot scon mm hn
thla unless he takea all ten tricks. Even
If he wins all the trlcka he doea not get
anything extra for ao doing unlesa the
value of his bid waa less than 250, in
which case ha geta 260 Instead of what he
bid.
Suppose, the bid waa eight In spadea.
worth 130. and that the Wddei won aJl ten
trlcka He would score 26a But If hla bid
waa eight tn hearts, worth 800, and he won
ail ten trlcka ha would acore only what
he btd-300.
Each of the playera opposed to the
bidder geta ten points for each trick that
he individually wins, no matter what ault
may be tramp or how many trlcka waa
bid. Suppose the bid to be eight trlcka
and one of the opponents gnta the two
other trlcka, that opponent acorea twenty
points for them, the other opponent of the
bidder getting nothing.
All that the bidder can accomplish by
playing on after he has made good his bid
Is to prevent his adversaries from scoring
too many of these ten points. He cannot
get any ten points himself for the extra
trlcka however.
If the bidder falla to make good hla un
dertaking he la art back the full amount
of hla bid, regardless of the number of
trlcka by which he falla. All he can do Is
to prevent hla opponents from scoring too
much.
Bven when failure Is Inevitable the bid

the tricks that he looses will be divided
between the two other players who are
opposed to him. When the bidder la set
bnck "more than he scored he goea "In the
hole" or In debt for the amount of the dif
ference.
In Case of No Bid.
When there has been no bid, and each
la for himself, playing a forced grando, or
no trumper, all the trlcka are worth ten
points each to the Individual player win
ning them In the general scramble.
The bidJer always has the first count.
and If he. has mnde good hla bid ho scores
the amount, no matter what the adver
saries have made. If the bidder haa
enough to put htm 600 he Is out, ea 600 la
game, even If one or both adversaries have
also readied 600 by getting In trick worth
ten each.
If the bidder does not get out the adver
sary that can reach 600 wins. If both hap
pen to get 600 on the same deal the one
that got the ten points that touched 600
first Is the winner.
When four play, not as partnera, with
the understanding that the dealer shall
take no cards, It la Impossible to make
the game 500 up, because that would be an
Injustice to the player who dealt, but who
cannot possibly win on that deal. The
method usually adopted Is to play an
agreed number of rounds, each player
dealing three or perhapa four times. At
the end of these rounda the scores are
added up and the highest Is the winner.
There is a wide difference of opinion as
to which Is the better game, straight 600
for three players each trying to reach the
goal, or the game of even rounda, high
score at the end to win all, which Is some
times adopted for three players as well as
for four.
In the three-hand game whenever one
player seems likely to go out on his bid
it becomea the duty of the two others to
overbid him or to bid so high that he can
cont successfully bid against them. This
Is calleb "keeping the flag flying." It la
thought better to be set back a bit than
to give up the game.
Keep High Man la.
Suppose A has 420 on the score and blda
six In diamonds. If he is allowed to hold
it and succeeda, the game Is over; so B,
who is perhaps only 300 up, bids something
better, whether he has any hopes of mak
ing It or not. If B Is set back that trip.
C takes a turn at It next time and between
them they keep the flag flying by prevent
ing A from going out
Sometimes these tactics are so successful
that one of the players who sacrifices
hlmsolf once or twice by going back a
couple of hundred points will get a big
hand and run the game out. Sometimes,
on the other hand, the high man will be
allowed to play and be set back. Then
again the high man will alt tight and
"sweat out" by getting home a trick or
two on every hand and gradually working
his way home ten points at a time.
When the game is for the highest score
at the end of an agreed number of doals
these sacrifice hits are unnecasary, and
this style of game has another great ad
vantage In making the game of aome defi
nite length. Sometlmea In their efforts to
keep the flog flying playera go so far that
the game becomes tedious and may last for
an hour or two.
Present experience indicates that the moat
popular form of the game will be three
or four players at the table, alwaya each
man for himself, twelve deals to a gams
and high score to win. The partnership
game Is not true five hundred, aa the ele
ment of one against two with only a widow
to help him is absent.
It Is a fine game no matter bow played
and an excellent training school for those
who wish to become expert at mora scien
tific games like whist and bridge.
