Specialty Definition: Solo

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Solo is a descriptive term applied to any activity done alone. Examples include flying, driving, singing, playing a musical instrument, or anything normally or previously done as part of a group or team. For example, the members of The Spice Girls have subsequently had solo careers in various fields.

Solo is a trick-taking card game based on whist. A major distinctive feature is that one player often plays against the other three, while in the regular game they team in pairs.

In music, solo need not mean that no one else is playing at that time, but the soloist's part is the most prominent. In jazz it is common for each player to improvise a solo in turn, while others continue to play but more quietly. A related term is soli, which means that a whole section of a musical ensemble is playing the same thing.

Solo touch is a web site covering issues of human sexuality with specific reference to masturbation.

Solo is a 1977 movie directed by Tony Williams

The city of Solo, formally known as Surakarta, 65 kilometers (40 miles) northeast of Yogyakarta and slightly futher southeast of Semarang in Java, Indonesia, was a center of power during the great Javanese kingdoms.

Solo whist

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Solo, sometimes known as Solo Whist, is a trick-taking card game based on whist. A major distinctive feature is that one player often plays against the other three.

Play proceeds as for whist. The cards may be dealt singly, or in threes, with a single card for the last round. The dealer's last card is turned up and left exposed for one round of play, whether used for trumps or not. One deal constitutes a game.

After the deal, the game starts with a round of bidding in which players may make the following declarations, listed here in ascending order of value:

  1. Proposal - declarer invites another player to join in a pairing that will make eight tricks
  2. Acceptance - declarer agrees to proposal
  3. Solo - declarer will alone make five tricks
  4. Misère - declarer will make no tricks - no trumps
  5. Abondance (abundance) - declarer will choose trumps and alone make nine tricks
  6. Abondance with trumps determined by the turn-up card (Royal abundance)
  7. Misère ouverte - declarer will make no tricks, with no trumps and with his cards open to the other three after the first trick
  8. Abandonce declarté (abundance declared); - declarer will choose trumps and alone make thirteen tricks
  9. Abondance declarté (Royal abundance declared); with trumps determined by the turn-up card

A player may only make a declaration of more value than any previous declarations. Bidding continues until all players pass.

Betting: stakes may be agreed for each declaration category, and for over- and undertricks. There are no over- or undertricks in contracts for misère, misère ouverte, or abundance declared.
