In other suit same color as trumps the rank is Ace, King, Queen, Ten, Nine. In suits the opposite color of trumps the rank is Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten, Nine. Partners are seated non-adjacently. There will be four cards left over. The top card is turned face up and the stack is placed on the table by the dealer.
Bidding begins to the left of the dealer and continues clockwise.
During the first round of bidding players either pass or instruct the dealer to pick up the face up card. Ordering up the face up card makes the suit of that card trumps for the hand. After the dealer picks up the card, they then discard one card from their hand. If all four players pass, the face up card is turned down and there is one more round of bidding. In this round a player may pass or name a suit other than the one that was turned up.
