SELECTED TOPICS for ADVANCING PLAYERS

Classes will touch on all areas of the game: bidding, play and particularly defense.

1. Listening to the bidding and making a good opening lead
2. Attitude signals – the most important messages for defenders
3. Competing with takeout doubles
4. Dummy recognition and finding the best defense
5. Count signals and determining declarer’s distribution
6. Suit preference signals

Each class topic is separate and will not build on a previous class for those who cannot commit to the entire series.  Lessons assume more than a basic knowledge of bridge fundamentals.

No partner necessary to participate.  Whether the topic is new or familiar, the classes are always fun and offer the opportunity to practice with lots of hands.
