	Seven Spades - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The last (seventh) spade has to be a real spade, and is put face up, not face down.

		Spades may not be played on the first trick unless a player holds nothing but spades (in which case that player would take every trick anyway, so the hand need not be played out).
		If no spades are played, the person who played the highest card of the suit led takes the trick.
		Spades may not be led until a spade has been played or a person holds nothing but spades.

	Puzzle Pirates: Spades
		Spades is a plain trick game: standard trick play and trump rules apply (spades being the trump suit in this game) and the number of tricks taken is what matters, not what cards were in the tricks taken (as in the game of Hearts).
		It is important to realize that in Spades both sides' bids stand (it is not like other bidding games in which only the higher bid counts).
		A trick containing a spade is won by the highest spade played; if no spade is played, the highest card of the suit led wins the trick.

	Rules for Spades
		Spades is a trick-based card game, with spades as the trump suit, played with two teams of two members each.
		The jokers are considered to be spades and the rank of spades is Big Joker, Little Joker, Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2.

	Master Spades: Tips Page 1
		A key step in the development of Spades players, after acquiring the habit of counting the cards as they are played, is to acquire the judgement of knowing when it is right to lead spades.
		The power of a long spade suit is derived not from its ability to ruff the opponents’ tricks, but from its ability to draw the opponents’ trumps.
		There are also times to lead spades strictly for defensive purposes; every good player knows that the only way to stop an enemy crossruff is to lead trump, regardless of your holding.
