Welcome to Bruce Lester's


 

 January Tip    

In an auction where you and your partner have never bid the opponents are in 3nt. 

The auction was:

1nt/2h(T)/2sp/3nt.

You are on lead holding:

xxx/OJ10x/xx/QJ10x

Your lead should be obvious to you.  What is it?  Why?

The answer will appear in next month's Bridge Tip...

In this intermediate / advanced course we learn more sophisticated bidding language that aids you in reaching the best contracts as well as interfering with opponent's bidding.

Your play is monitored during random deals (from the bidding to leads-to defense).  Single session events for 4 to 8 students, cost to be determined.

Any topic (for example "Jacoby 2NT").  Single session events for 4 or more students, cost to be determined.
