'The most useful publication in the past twelve months. I
unhesitatingly award my accolade to BRIDGE ODDS FOR PRACTICAL
PLAYERS because every player should know the material it contains.
This cannot be found elsewhere' THE TIMES Backing outsiders has
ruined many a punter at the bridge table as well as at the race
track. Few players have any idea of how to harness the odds to
solve problems that constantly recur. Which is the best line of
play? Is it better to finesse or play for the drop? Will the
diamonds break? Can the chances be combined? What are the exact
odds? Here is a simple guide to solving the problems that arise in
assessing the odds in play at bridge. Keeping theory to a minimum,
the authors show by means of many practical examples how to
calculate the odds and how to come up with the right answer at the
bridge table. Anyone who learns to apply the principles set out in
this book need never again be accused of playing against the odds.
