How to Play Hearts: Card Game

Hearts is a trick-based card game for four players. The object of the game is to be the player with the fewest points. Here is a simplified idea of how the game is played:
Each round of four hands starts with players passing three cards to an opponent. First hand passes to the player on the left, next hand to the right, then across and then not at all.
The player holding the 2 of Clubs will begin play by leading with a suit.
Each player in turn lays one card down on the table. The four cards together are called a "trick."
The person who played the highest card takes the trick. The cards are ranked in the usual order, with 2 being lowest and Ace being highest.
If there are any "point cards" in the trick, then the player who took the trick gets those points. Each Heart card is worth one point, and the Queen of Spades is worth a whopping 13 points! There is no trump suit.
When one player's score goes above 100 points, the game ends, and the one player with the least amount of points is declared the winner!

thanks for the video. I played this game before but I forgot. Thanks for teaching me. Oh and your funny

2:31 Wait a minute... at this stage (first lead of hearts) we can assume that all players have at least one heart. Ace has been played, 4 leads and 2, 3 and 5 are accounted for. Hence, the worst case scenario is that the other players play 6 and 8 respectively, so playing the 7 is the best gamble. Even if one player is void hearts (pretty unlikely), the 5 is a dead cert.

I play a little different, for instance I would not break hearts with my highest heart, I usually break with my 3rd highest as a rule, It's usually a good idea to save your 2 highest ones in case you need to stop someone from shooting the moon, so I don't play off my 2 highest ones until at least 2 players have taken points.

I`m reading what to do but i still don`t get it

at 1:35.. that is a bad play. You should NEVER "get rid" of the Ace of Hearts this early. Especially since no points have yet been taken. The J or 9 of Hearts would be a smarter play. Save the A to stop any potential moon shot.

[@jerrypackebush2540]

if queen of spades is played before any hearts does that break hearts

[@DreamQuestGames]

Is that so? Would you like to tell us how? Perhaps we've made a mistake! Thanks for the comment!

And I also keep ALL low spades, I cannot understand why so ppl pass low spades. I also never pass the Ace or King of Hearts if I have them, they are valuable cards and you need them to stop someone from shooting. And also my rule is I always try to take the first heart IF I can just so no one shoots. OK those are my valuable tips lol :)

Do not play this game. This game is totally a bullship because it will always cheat you. This game will let you down as your winning rate is over some percentages no matter how skillful you are. Microsoft put this game the only purpose is to let you fraustrated.
