I would also suggest Preferans which belongs to the same family of games thematically - trick taking, contract bidding. Three players, dynamic alliances, instead of predetermined pairings like in bridge. Multiple game modes, including the "passing game" which happens when nobody wants to bid and results in a round where players are penilized for taking tricks. Some of the interesting bidding options include "no trump" and "misere" (not certain of spelling) where player contracts to avoid taking any tricks.
