Bridge by David J Weiss
When the deals presented as problems in this book were played, expert players misdefended. That's hardly news. Every experienced bridge player has misdefended from time to time. Indeed, the challenge of logically assembling a winning defence is one of the main appeals of the game. Because it is hard for all of us, this is where the points are to be won. The key elements in successful defence are visualization and communication. These elements go hand in hand, and they are greatly abetted by the system of parity leads introduced in this volume. Using a concept already familiar to all bridge players, you will be able to infer crucial information about the unseen hands. You will be ready to focus on how to help partner and hinder declarer. When you succeed at the table, you and partner will experience the special joy that comes from a shared triumph. This book contains 60 examples in the popular question-and-answer format, with the spotlight on the occupant of the hot seat. Few of the problems are easy and many were not solved at the table by experts. That fact alone makes the book worth reading because players derive pleasure recalling howlers made by the master's.| SKU | Unavailable |
