If it's not a secret, what is the process for determining or dealing goulash deals?

Thanks.

Basically you play a hand but instead of keeping your cards like in normal bridge, you collect tricks like in spades and many other games. Now you pile them up, do some optional shuffling (just split the deck to make sure the first card is random) and deal them out 4-4-5.

Basically any method that assures grouping of the cards works and then just deal them out in groups.

Have fun!

Sorry, I was referring to BBO's method.

Actually Gerben, I think that goulash deals are created by collecting the hands after a passout (still ordered into suits) and then cutting and redealing, rather than after a played hand. It was a common thing to do to try and liven up the bidding after a passout. Normally you would expect extreme 1 or 2 suiter hands, possibly with both sides being able to make game in one of the suits.

Edmund, I would imagine that Fred uses a similar type of system to determine the goulash hand. Deal out all the cards, collect them in, and then deal them out again, giving a perfect reprensentation of a goulash deal. But I'm just guessing
