If you have no intent to Shoot the Moon and do not have the Queen, King or Ace of Spades & you have won the prior trick you should keep laying Spades until you force someone to eat the Queen.If you are not holding the Queen of Spades you typically want to lay in a fashion that allows you to get rid of your highest cards as soon as you can while giving yourself the most flexibility with future plays & not risking eating the Queen of Spades.If you are passing left you typically want to pass the 2 of Clubs. If you have both the 2 of Clubs and Ace of Clubs you should pass one of them.The Ace of Clubs is less risky than other Aces since you can lay it on the first trick and players are prohibited from laying any Hearts or the Queen of Spades in the opening hand.When swapping cards it is usually best to pass along Queen, King, or Ace of a suit unless you are trying to Shoot the Moon.If you have the Ace, King, or Queen of Spades & few low spades you should pass the high Spade cards unless you want to shoot the moon.Having a large number of low value Spades (anything below the Queen) lowers the odds you will get stuck eating the Queen of Spades. Try not to lay off low ranking Spades as someone may send you the Queen, King or Ace.In general a great strategy to have is to try to have 3 or fewer suits if possible so that you have flexibility in laying off cards.When you pass across the person both knowns what you sent them and what they sent you.Likewise the person who passes you cards knows that they sent you.When you pass left or right the person who receives them knows what you gave them & may be able to infer your strategy based on that.
