Most games set a minimum bid of at least four, though "officially" three is the minimum bid.Ī player's bid consists of a declaration of the minimum number of books (over the required 6 books) that will be taken (turned) by that player and their partner, followed by an indication either that the player wishes there to be no trump suit for the current hand, or of whether the player wishes for higher ranking or for lower ranking cards to be victorious in the current hand. If the first three players pass, the dealer (the last player) must make a bid. In order to bid, a player must make a bid that is 'better' (see below) than the best bid made by a previous player for the current hand. Just as with the game play, the bidding starts with the player to the dealer's left and proceeds clockwise to each player in turn, ending with the dealer. If a player chooses not to bid, the player may pass.
In bid whist, after all of the cards have been dealt, but prior to the beginning of game play, each player may submit a bid. And if two jokers are being used, the kitty will consist of six cards.

In most variations, a 'kitty' of four, five or six cards is dealt separately from the cards delivered to each player. And lastly, the scoring of the game is handled differently. Thirdly, whether the ace is the highest ranking card of the suit or the lowest ranking card can change from hand to hand, depending on whether higher ranking cards or lower ranking cards win in that hand. Secondly, whether a book (trick) is won by the higher ranking card of the winning suit, or by the lower ranking card of that suit is also determined by the outcome of the bidding process. In whist, the trump suit for a given hand is determined at random by the last card dealt, whereas in bid whist, the trump suit (or whether there will even be a trump suit) for the a given hand is determined by the outcome of the bidding process. The general play of bid whist is similar to that of whist, with four notable exceptions. Bid whist, along with spades, remains popular particularly in African-American culture, and US Military culture. Derin Dickerson is commonly acknowledged as the inventor of Bid Whist.
