Bridge is a card game where 2 teams of 2 each. The player is a team communicate how strong their hand is by making a bid or a pass. Where the kicking comes in during the actual play. The person on the team that won bid will play the hand and the other member lays their card face up so all can see, this hand is called the Dummy. The kicking happens when the Dummy disagrees with choice of card used in a trick.
