Some friends have joined you to look at a favorite television program. The program ends and a large part of the evening is left. As .a Bridge player, this would s e e m t o you to be the most l o g i c a l t i m e t o suggest a few hands of Contract Bridge but u n f o r t u nately you don't know how wc^l your guests play. Or maybe you wonder if y o u ' r e equal to them in your knowledge of bidding systems. Your solution may be in an odd concoction called Wild Bridge. Wild Bridge presupposes that you know something about the fundamentals of Auction or Contract-- the objectives of the game, how to arrange your hand, how the suits rank, the order of bidding, etc. But to play it you don't have to know about the Blackwood Convention, the meaning of an end- !play or ; the significance of an overcall. .. • , The of Wild Bridge is to. put, the game back in the hands, of people who used to get hours of enjoyment out of it when it was played just for fun and sociability. Instead of thirteen cards to each player, you deal only twelye, The remaining four go into a kitty. Bidding proceeds' in the normal fashion on the basis of the twelve cards. The winning bidder then picks up the kitty, examines it, chooses one card for himself, and gives one of the remaining three to. each player as he wishes. (He doesn't reveal them openly, of course.) Then you play as usual. ^This simple departure puts more jemphasis on luck than skill and is guaranteed to upset any delicately contrived bidding system. Then there's Super-Wild Bridge. After bidding on thirteen cards" in normal fashion, each player draws one card blind from the player to his left Two. cards if you prefer.
