Both during bidding and play!
Bids are generally trustworthy, with the exception of the dealer possibly getting hooked.
Seeing whether the hand is underbid or overbid will tell you whether it will be harder to win tricks or to lose tricks.
Know who has to win or lose the current trick and who still has the flexibility to try and ruin your plans.

If it doesn't disrupt your plans, try to play your questionable middle cards that could go either way early. That way you have the rest of the hand to adjust.

-Dividing the number of cards in your hand by the number of players is a good place to start bidding. It is often easier to lose tricks than win, but betting more will earn more points, assuming you still make your bet. Always bid at least 1 if you have an ace of the trump suit. Bidding 0 will mean you always win at least 1 point, but bid higher if you have high cards.
