Book Description | Highly anticipated follow-up to the winner of the 2019 ABTA (American Bridge Teachers Association) Book of the Year Award! The latest installment of the Insights on Bridge series contains hundreds more carefully crafted mini-lessons designed to turn aspiring players into good players. The material in this book is devoted to situations and problems you will see at the table but are hard to find in books.Note From Mike Lawrence: AFTER WRITING OVER 25 books on bridge that discuss certain aspects of play, defense, system, or general bidding, I've begun a series of books aimed at turning aspiring players into good players. Note I don't say expert players. That will be the next step. Bridge isn't a game where you can immerse yourself for six months and become a good player. There's just too much to learn. You have to start somewhere and then move in the right direction. Typically, when you start playing in a club, you feel lost. After you get your feet on the ground, you still recognize that you aren't moving very fast. Going forward requires that you get good guidance. Many players at your club will offer advice. Much of that advice, unfortunately, isn't very good.This series of books includes hundreds of mini-lessons, complete with insights and advice you can count on. The material is devoted to situations and problems you will see at the table but not in other books. This book (#2 in a series) won't make you an expert. But these books will start you on the path to being a good player and a good partner.Enjoy the trip.Mike Lawrence |
