Bogus game of spades
This a bogus game of spades! All players but you can lead with spades anytime even if they are not broken, which is contrary to the rules of REAL SPADES. Your partner bids nil with the Ace of spades...are you kidding! If you bid nil with a single mediocre spade you partner is very capable of initially leading out with a 2 or 4 or spades leaving you high and dry. Your partner usually has two under what he/she bids thus over books. Obviously the designers do not know about the game of Spades.
