Why You Still Lose at Bridge by Julian Pottage

S.J. Simon's classic bridge text book 'Why You Lose at Bridge', dispensing advice to the improving card player through archetypical bridge-playing characters such as Futile Willie, the Unlucky Expert, and Mrs. Guggenheim, is regarded as one of the best books ever written on the game. In this follow-up book, Julian Pottage uses the same approach to discuss common failings of modern club players - mis-describing your shape, overvaluing your hand, bidding the wrong slam, playing a flawed system, giving the wrong signal, making losing leads, and many more.

Julian Pottage has lived in Wales for 11 years with his wife and children. Julian is a contributor, columnist, and past associate editor of BRIDGE, with a background in occupational pensions and financial compliance. He now focuses on bridge writing, family, dog breeding, and photography. He is also the Daily Telegraph's bridge correspondent. Julian competed in the Commonwealth bridge games in 2014 and subsequently represented Wales in the European Championships and the Camrose home international in 2016. He has written over 25 books on bridge, contributes to other bridge periodicals, and commentates for simultaneous pairs events and BBO vugraph.
