you
must

being
the
last
player.

Maxims
for
Whist.
i.
Lead
from
your
strong

be
cautious
how
you
change
suits,
and
keep
a
commanding
card
to
bring
it
in
again.
ii.
Lead
through
the
strong
suit
and
up
to
the
weak;
but
not
in
trumps;
unless
very
strong
in
them.
iii.
Lead
the
highest
of
a
sequence;
but
if
you
have
a
quarte
or
cinque
to
a
king,
lead
the
lowest.
iv.
Lead
through
an
honour,
particularly
if
the
game
is
against
you.
v.
Lead
your
best
trump,
if
the
adversaries
be
eight,
and
you
have
no
honour;
but
not
if
you
have
four
trumps,
unless
you
have
a
sequence.
