(bridge) the process by which players communicate information about their hand to their partner and determine the contract for the hand
What is "bidding"?
Bidding is the process in card games, particularly in games like Bridge, where players make offers to communicate the strength and potential of their hand to their partner. Each player takes turns stating how many tricks they think they can win or what suit they believe will be the trump suit. These offers help establish a contract, which sets the rules for the round, such as who will be the declarer and which suit will be dominant. The highest bid usually determines the contract, and players work together to achieve the goal set by the bid.
