These wonderful agreements and gadgets turn your everyday bidding
system into something personal, something that fits the exact style
that you and your partner want to play. And now you can choose from
some seventy expert-level ideas to add to your bidding arsenal,
quickly and painlessly. In this book you will find: 'Basic
Conventions' -- the Rest of the Story: find out how top-level
players have turbo-charged such standard conventions as Stayman,
Jacoby and Texas Transfers, Drury, Weak Jump Shifts, and more.
'Bread and Butter Conventions': some conventions that are standard
with most experts but may not be for you, such as Smolen, Slow
Arrival, Italian Cuebids, the best defences to Multi and Bergen
Raises, Retransfers, Clarifying Cuebids, and others; 'Defensive and
Cardplay Conventions': learn more about Trump Suit Preference,
Obvious Shift carding, the Slam Spade Double, the Lead-directing
Pass, and many more. 'Fine Arts Conventions': not for the faint of
heart, some of these ideas will really make you sit up and take
notice. Would you enjoy playing Last Train to Clarkesville, Yellow
Rose of Texas, Vacant Doubletons, Double Keycard Blackwood, Trent
Weak Two-bids, or the XYZ Convention, for example? Read this book
and find out!
Bridge Today Digest recently celebrated its first anniversary (and
100th issue) as an Internet-based "bridge-zine." It is renowned for
its practical advice, its wonderful bridge stories, and the wry
humor and personal touch of its editors. For this collection, they
have selected the very best pieces from their first year, and have
come up with a compendium that every bridge player can read, enjoy,
and learn from. It includes short pieces from world-renowned
writers, questions and comments from readers (and the editors'
responses to them!), and a wealth of deals, anecdotes and advice
from the editors. A great holiday gift.
