It might work well enough just by playing a single hand - just like backgammon on the server here
only plays one-game matches. Over time the ratings will balance out the scoring. Then offer the
full game (or number of contracts) as an option to the challenge command.

You've also got the hearts code as a decent starting point for a trick-based card game :)
