How to play 400
- Each player gets 13 cards. Hearts are trump in every round.
- Each player names the exact number of tricks they will take, once each, and there is no pass.
- The lowest call is 2. It rises to 3, 4 or 5 once your own score reaches 30, 40 or 50.
- The four calls together must reach at least 11, or the hands are thrown in and dealt again.
- Follow the suit that was led when you can. The highest card of that suit takes the trick, and any heart beats the other suits.
Scoring and winning
- Scoring is per player: reach your call and you take its value, fall short and you lose the same.
- Below 30, a call of 5 is worth 10 and a call of 6 is worth 12.
- A call of 9 is worth 27, and anything from 10 up is worth 40.
- A team wins when one partner reaches 41 and the other partner's score is above zero.
