Quickfire Rules

Dealing and Bidding: Cards are evenly dealt among four players. Each player bids either high (black card) or low (red card). The first black card turned over signifies a 'high' round, where teams aim to win as many tricks as possible. If all bids are red, the round is 'low', and teams aim to win as few tricks as possible.
Playing the Round: In a high bid round, the player to the right of the 'grander' leads the first trick. In a low bid round, the player to the left of the dealer starts. Players must follow suit if possible; otherwise, any card can be played. The highest card in the led suit wins the trick.
Scoring: In high bid rounds, the granding team scores a point for each trick over six. If they fail to make seven tricks, the opposing team scores points based on the 'set bonus' setting. In low bid rounds, teams score a point for each trick under seven.
