  • Mechanics of the Game
    - 1 - BRIDGE - BEGINNER'S LESSONS I - 01 Introductory Concepts – Vocabulary – Mechanics of the Game Bridge is a Partnership game in which each Player is designated by his/her compass direction. NORTH and SOUTH are PARTNERS playing against their OPPONENTS, EAST and WEST. The bridge deck consists of 52 cards with a total of four SUITS: CLUBS, DIAMONDS, HEARTS, and SPADES. Clubs and Diamonds are termed MINOR SUITS, Hearts and Spades are termed MAJOR SUITS. The cards in each suit are RANKED with the Ace being the highest, followed by the King, Queen, Jack, Ten ... then on down the line to the 2, the lowest ranking card. The suits are also ranked in alphabetical order: “C”lubs, "D”iamonds, "H”earts, and "S”pades. Clubs is the suit of lowest rank, and Spades the suit of highest rank. The cards are SHUFFLED and the deck is then dealt by the DEALER, one card at a time, face down, in a clock-wise direction, until each Player has 13 cards; comprising his/her HAND. The game of Bridge has two stages, the BIDDING PHASE followed by the PLAYING PHASE. During the second phase of any bridge hand, the playing phase, each Player contributes one card to each of thirteen turns, with the highest card winning, for his/her team, each series of four cards played. Each series of four cards played is called a TRICK. Since each Player contributes one card to each trick, there are, therefore, a total of thirteen available tricks to each hand that is played. In the first phase of bridge, the bidding phase, there is a continuous ROUND OF BIDDING, which, in an auction fashion, determines which Partnership will undertake a final CONTRACT.

  • Application of Self-Play Reinforcement Learning to a Four-Player Game of Imperfect Information
    Application of Self-Play Reinforcement Learning to a Four-Player Game of Imperfect Information Application of Self-Play Reinforcement Learning to a Four-Player Game of Imperfect Information Henry Charlesworth [email protected] Centre for Complexity Science University of Warwick Editor: Abstract We introduce a new virtual environment for simulating a card game known as \Big 2". This is a four-player game of imperfect information with a relatively complicated action space (being allowed to play 1,2,3,4 or 5 card combinations from an initial starting hand of 13 cards). As such it poses a challenge for many current reinforcement learning methods. We then use the recently proposed \Proximal Policy Optimization" algorithm (Schulman et al., 2017) to train a deep neural network to play the game, purely learning via self-play, and find that it is able to reach a level which outperforms amateur human players after only a relatively short amount of training time. 1. Introduction Big 2 (also known as deuces, big deuce and various other names) is a four player card game of Chinese origin which is played widely throughout East and South East Asia. The game begins with a standard deck of 52 playing cards being shuffled and dealt out so that each player starts with 13 cards. Players then take it in turns to either play a hand or pass with basic aim of being the first player to be able to discard all of their cards (see section 2 for more details about the rules). In this work we introduce a virtual environment to simulate the game which is ideal for the application of multi-agent reinforcement learning algorithms.

  • DEFENSIVE CARDING by Larry Matheny
    DEFENSIVE CARDING By Larry Matheny Defending a bridge contract is often difficult but it is much easier when you and your partner are communicating. For this to happen, you must agree on the meaning of each card you play and that isn’t easy. Let’s start with some carding methods to improve your defense. When following to a trick or discarding, there are three basic signals you can give your partner: attitude, count, and suit preference. In today’s session I will give a brief overview of each of these along with examples. There is a general rule that states: “When partner leads you give attitude and when declarer leads you give count”. This is not always true but is a good guideline. Let’s start with the first message you want to send to your partner. ATTITUDE The most common carding method is for a high card to encourage while a low one discourages. Some players reverse this but for today’s session we will encourage with high-low. Here is an example that clearly demonstrates that method. Hand#1 KQ42 K86 Dlr E J632 Vul E/W K3 96 85 QJ105 A974 874 1095 J1074 9865 AJ1073 32 AKQ AQ2 North-South are in 6 and West leads the queen of hearts. South ducks and East should encourage with the nine. This is a very obvious case of attitude. (It 1 also shows North should have bid 6NT to guard his heart king from the opening lead, but that’s not today’s message.) Now, while you may think that is automatic, let’s change to this layout: Hand#2 KQ642 K8 Dlr E J632 Vul E/W K3 9 5 QJ105 A9632 874 1095 97654 AQJ2 AJ10873 74 AKQ 108 North-South are now in 4 and West leads the queen of hearts.

  • 1. Introduction to Combinatorics
    University of California, Los Angeles Department of Statistics Statistics 100A Instructor: Nicolas Christou Combinatorial analysis Basic principle of counting: Suppose two experiments are to be performed. Then, if the first experiment can result in m outcomes and if for each outcome of the first experiment there are n outcomes of the second experiment, then all together there are m × n possible outcomes. Examples: Permutations: How many different ordered arrangements of the letters A; B; C are possible? There are 6 permutations: ABC; ACB; BAC; BCA; CAB; CBA. Or, using the basic principle of count- ing we can find the number of permutations as follows: 3 × 2 × 1 = 6. In general n objects can be ordered in n × (n − 1) × (n − 2) × · · · × 1 = n! ways. Each arrangement it is called a permutation. Example: In how many ways can 4 math books, 3 chemistry books, and 2 history books can be ordered so that books of the same subject are together? Suppose k objects are to be selected and ordered from n objects (k < n). Say, n = 4 (A; B; C; D), and k = 3. Let's list all the possible permutations: ABC BCD CDA DAB ABD BCA CDB DAC ACB BDA CAB DBC ACD BDC CAD DBA ADB BAC CBD DCA ADC BAD CBA DCB As we observe there are 24 permutations. Much easier, we can find the number of permuta- tions using the basic principle of counting as follows: 4 × 3 × 2 = 24. In general, the number of ways that k objects can be selected and ordered from n objects are: n × (n − 1) × (n − 2) × · · · × (n − k + 1).
