The winner between forehand and middle hand will then repeat the process with the rear hand. This goes back and forth between middle hand and forehand until one passes. At this time, middle hand can increase the bid, and forehand has the option to accept it again. If forehand thinks he/she can make that many points, he/she will accept it. If middle hand bids, forehand can accept the bid or pass.

The middle hand gets the first chance to steal that opportunity by stating a bid amount. The opportunity to determine trump, or call null, is given to the forehand. The player left of the dealer is called the forehand, the player right of the dealer is called the middle hand, and the dealer is called the rear hand.
