For each handful, whoever showed it, add the corresponding number of points if the contract is succeeded, or subtract if the contract is failed. See table Table 2.4 for the number of points. A positive bonus is favorable to the taker.
If a team has taken all tricks (not necessarily all cards), then a slam applies. See table Table 2.7. A positive bonus is favorable to the taker.
| Slam declared | slam team | bonus |
|---|---|---|
| no | taker | +200 |
| no | defense | -200 |
| yes | taker | +400 |
| yes | defense | -400 |
Table 2.7: Bonus / malus for slam results
Note that although the case the taker declared slam but the defense took all tricks is provided for completeness of the rules, but it is highly improbable: it would mean that the taker declared slam without the twenty-one, and with an extremely bad luck.
