How Hearts plays:

At the end of each hand, the trick cards each player has collected are presented and totalled. The value of those trick cards are added to each player's total score.

Whoever is dealt the 2 of clubs plays this card to start. Each player must play one card in a clockwise order, following suit where they can. The winner of each trick is the player who plays the highest card matching the suit of the first player to play. If you cannot follow suit you can play any card from your hand, except on the first round you are not permitted to play a trick card. No player may lead with a heart until the first heart is played ('hearts are broken').

This classic game is also know as Black Lady, Dark Lady, Slippery Anne, Chase the Lady, Crubs, Black Queen and Black Maria.
