ODD-EVEN DISCARDS

A system of discards in which the face value (odd/even) of the discard may signal attitude or suit preference. Odd cards encourage the suit discarded while even cards indicate suit preference between the other two suits.

For instance, when discarding on a spade lead, the 3 asks for a heart, the 8 asks for a diamond and the 2 asks for a club.
