The Complete Book on Balancing in Contract Bridge by Mike Lawrence
This revised and expanded edition examines bridge auctions where the opponents bid something and you have the opportunity to either let them have it or to balance. The cost of not balancing can be huge, but you must weigh the cost of passing against the cost of bidding and getting a bad result. Lawrence's discussion of hand evaluation and planning a balancing auction goes beyond generic rules. Hundreds of examples help you develop judgmentMike Lawrence is the illustrator of Muddy Max: The Mystery of Marsh Creek (co-written with Elizabeth Rusch) and Melissa Keil's novel The Amazing Adventures of Cinnamon Girl. His debut as a solo graphic writer is the Star Scouts series (published by First Second). Mike has made various pieces of public art for his hometown of Portland, Oregon, where he lives with his wife and two sons, in addition to drawing comics.
