  • Squeeze Plays
    The Squeeze Play By James R. Klein **** The most fascinating of all advanced plays in bridge is undoubtedly the squeeze play. Since the origin of bridge, the ability to execute the squeeze play has been one of the many distinguishing marks of the expert player. What is more important is the expert's ability to recognize that a squeeze exists and therefore make all the necessary steps to prepare for it. Often during the course of play the beginner as well as the advanced player has executed a squeeze merely because it was automatic. The play of a long suit with defender holding all the essential cards will accomplish this. The purpose of the squeeze play is quite simple. It is to create an extra winner with a card lower than the defender holds by compelling the latter to discard it to protect a vital card in another suit. While the execution of the squeeze play at times may seem complex, the average player may learn a great deal by studying certain principles that are governed by it. 1. It is important to determine which of the defenders holds the vital cards. This may be accomplished in many ways; for example, by adverse bidding, by a revealing opening lead, by discards and signals but most often by the actual fall of the cards. This is particularly true when one of the defenders fails to follow suit on the first or second trick. 2. It is important after the opening lead is made to count the sure tricks before playing to the first trick.

For many years he has been planning to assemble an in-depth study of all known card play techniques and their classification. The only thing he lacked was time for the project; now, having recently retired, he has accom- plished his ambitious task. It has been my privilege to follow its progress and watch the book take shape. A book such as this should not to be put into a beginner’s hands, but it should become a well-thumbed reference source for all players who want to improve their game.

Later that evening, I was chatting to the editor who had had the good fortune to work on this manuscript, and couldn’t resist asking him what the experience had been like. ‘Well,’ he replied, ‘he wasn’t a bad writer, you know.’ It has been my good fortune to undertake the bridge equivalent of his experience — to work on editing and publishing a new edition of Victor Mollo’s Bridge in the Menagerie, a book that is included in absolutely everybody’s list of the top ten books ever written on the game of bridge.

    Dedication: 3/15/05 I dedicate this collection to my friends Orville and Evelyn Brynelson and my parents George and Marion Greenwald. I especially thank James Steckel, Barbara Zbikowski, Gustavo Betancourt, and Joshua Ellis, colleagues and computer experts extraordinaire, for their invaluable assistance. Kathy Hart, MUHS librarian, was most helpful in suggesting sources. I further thank Gaylan DuBose, Ed Long, Hugh Himwich, Susan Schearer, Gardy Warren, and Kaye Warren for their encouragement and advice. My former students and now Classics professors Daniel Curley and Anthony Hollingsworth also deserve mention for their advice, assistance, and friendship. My student Michael Kocorowski encouraged and provoked me into beginning this dictionary. Certamen players Michael Fleisch, James Ruel, Jeff Tudor, and Ryan Thom were inspirations. Sue Smith provided advice. James Radtke, James Beaudoin, Richard Hallberg, Sylvester Kreilein, and James Wilkinson assisted with words from modern foreign languages. Without the advice of these and many others this dictionary could not have been compiled. Lastly I thank all my colleagues and students at Marquette University High School who have made my teaching career a joy. Basic sources: American College Dictionary (ACD) American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (AHD) Oxford Dictionary of English Etymology (ODEE) Oxford English Dictionary (OCD) Webster’s International Dictionary (eds. 2, 3) (W2, W3) Liddell and Scott (LS) Lewis and Short (LS) Oxford Latin Dictionary (OLD) Schaffer: Greek Derivative Dictionary, Latin Derivative Dictionary In addition many other sources were consulted; numerous etymology texts and readers were helpful. Zeno’s Word Frequency guide assisted in determining the relative importance of words. However, all judgments (and errors) are finally mine.

  • MONTHLY INVITATIONAL TEAMS Bertheau Vs. Levine
    MIT I BULLETIN 4 • Saturday, April 24, 2021 • editor Christina Lund Madsen • [email protected] MONTHLY INVITATIONAL TEAMS TOP ONLINE BRIDGE EVENTS • MIT.BRIDGERESULTS.ORG Bertheau vs. Levine Determining the top four was down to the last board of the Round Robin. Gupta lost to Bertheau and had to watch breath withheld to see whether they would be overtaken. They could exhale when Wolfson's 1 IMP-victory over Setton only brought the team honorable mention as the first non-qualifier. Ireland-Levine was a thriller turning into a horror-movie from an Irish perspective as they went from a narrow, but sufficient, lead to lose 37 IMPs in the last three boards, propelling Levine into second ahead of Nickell and Gupta. That left Bertheau the choice between the T-Rex and the Velociraptor. They chose to face Nickell (that must be a first) and their courage was rewarded with a win. That left Gupta and Levine in each other's arms, and halfway it looked like another close encounter until Levine slayed their rivals to face Bertheau in today's final. Yesterday we parted with six amazing teams. It has been a pleasure and a privilege hosting and watching you during the past four days and we hope to see you again.
