The Fifty Six all pass rule used here keeps the deal in play as no trump, with the dealer's opponents treated as bidding 28.

Some tables use a forced-bid alternative instead.

All players decline to bid.

Do not gather the cards automatically: identify the dealer's opposing team and write its 28-point target.

If that team collects 27, the target is missed even if it took more tricks.

Choose the Fifty Six all pass rule before the first auction.

Knowing what a pass-out means prevents players from expecting a free redeal that this version does not provide.
