Why You Keep Getting Set: 5 Common Spades Bidding Errors

The "King of a Long Suit" Trap

If you have the King of Diamonds but also have 5 other Diamonds, someone will cut your King before it walks. A King is only a "sure" book if the suit is short (2-3 cards).

Underbidding (Sandbagging)

Bidding 2 when you have 4 seems safe, but it's a fast track to a "Bag Back" (-100 points). Aim for precision.
