simplified form of the complex <a href="/wiki/Card_game" title="Card game">card game</a> <a href="/wiki/Contract_Bridge" class="mw-redirect" title="Contract Bridge">Contract Bridge</a> designed to expose newcomers to declarer and defensive playing techniques without the burden of learning a detailed bridge <a href="/wiki/Bidding_system" title="Bidding system">bidding system</a>. The game was first introduced in France and the Netherlands in the 1990s. The variant described in this article is the one advertised by the <a href="/wiki/English_Bridge_Union" title="English Bridge Union">English Bridge Union</a> for use in <a href="/wiki/Primary_school" title="Primary school">primary schools</a> as a way to improve pupils' performance in mathematics. </p><p>Like other forms of bridge, Minibridge is played by four players in fixed partnerships, sitting crosswise. A full deck of 52 cards is dealt to the players, each receiving 13 cards. As in contract bridge, it is then decided which player becomes <i>declarer</i>, but a key innovation of Minibridge is that this decision is taken out of the players' hands. Declarer's partner then lays open their hand, and declarer announces a contract. This is a trump suit or <i>no trumps</i>, together with an undertaking to win more than half the tricks (<i>partscore</i>) or even to win 100 trick points or more (<i>game</i>). The remainder of the game is very similar to contract bridge. In particular, declarer's partner becomes <i>dummy</i> (i.e., declarer plays both hands). </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Bidding">Bidding</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Minibridge&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Bidding"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <table class="wikitable" align="right"> <caption>High-card points </caption> <tbody><tr align="center"> <th>Rank </th> <th>A</th> <th>K</th> <th>Q</th> <th>J</th> <th>10–2 </th></tr> <tr align="center"> <th>Points </th> <td>4</td> <td>3</td> <td>2</td> <td>1</td> <td>0 </td></tr></tbody></table> <p>Each player adds all <a href="/wiki/Hand_evaluation" title="Hand evaluation">high-card points</a> in their hand and announces the result.
