<p>If the final score is 504 to 505? Who wins? You both reached 500 exactly and the 5 and the 4 are just indicators of bags. So who wins? The person with less bags or do you just play one more round?</p>

In Spades, who wins if both partnerships reach more than 500?

The partnership that have more points. That is the partnership that scored 505. The 1 points per overtrick is a real point, not just an indicator of bags.
