Fifty Six Six Player Seating: Alternate the Teams

Fifty Six six player seating alternates three teammates with three opponents. Each player receives eight cards from the 48-card pack.

Fifty Six six player seating alternates three teammates with three opponents.

Each player receives eight cards from the 48-card pack.

Label the circle A1, B1, A2, B2, A3, B3.

Seating A1, A2 and A3 together changes who acts between teammates and is not the intended partnership arrangement.

Count eight cards each before the auction rather than discovering a short hand halfway through play.

A simple seating check makes Fifty Six six player seating easy for a mixed group.

Use team markers if newcomers cannot yet remember the other two partners.
