400 is a trick-taking card game[1] played in two partnerships with a standard deck of 52 playing cards. The object of the game is to be the first team to reach forty-one points. The game somewhat resembles Spades, but with subtle differences. It was in the early years after the Ottoman Empire. Historically, the game is mainly played in Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan, Honduras, and The Philippines. It is similar to the game Tarneeb, which is also played in the region.
If a player does not receive a picture in their hand, the game can still proceed.
If two players reach the winning stage of 42 points or above, a last round must be played and the players team with most points win the game
