I am having a hard time seeing why you would call next on this hand, unless you are down 9-1 and want to go alone. Even then, I might prefer to call spades...

Now that I think about, Natty couldn't possibly be a conservative bidder. As he likes to remind us, there is no "bidding" in euchre. But I don't think he's a...
