  • Objective Criteria to Select a Convention
    Objective criteria to select a convention Besides pre-emptive bids at 3 or 4 level , we have at our disposal only 10 opening bids, from 1. to 2 NT , to describe all possible hands we might have . How many different kind of hands could there be ? Here start the bad news … One suited hands are 4 , 2 suited hands 6 , 3 suited hands 4 plus , finally , 1 balanced hand . Hands can not be defined only according to their shape , point count is also a discriminating factor . We have therefore to take into account at least 3 point ranges : weak , medium and strong . The total will add up to something over 40 different kind of hands to be described with only 10 opening bids . The first consequence of such consideration , is that we have to give up the ambition , if we had any, to open one specific type of hand with one specific bid. We have to live with the fact that 1 bid will have to describe a little group of hands and not a single specific hand. With more than 40 different hands and only 10 opening bids , we can not do otherwise. In building up a bidding system , we will have to assign to each bid a little group of hands , so that all possible hands are covered.. Each bid will therefore have a different meaning , according to the bidding system used . Existing bidding systems are quite a few and conventions or treatments are even more numerous . How to choose among the abundant offer available in literature ? How to make an objective selection among the various available alternatives ? In order to be able to take a sound decision , we need objective criteria .

  • Giorgio Belladonna
    Giorgio Belladonna Giorgio Belladonna (1923-1995) of Rome, Italy, was a public official and brid- ge professional with a long-running column in a leading Italian daily news-paper. In his youth, Belladonna was a useful footballer but it was bridge which was to be his great love and at which he was to become one of the all-time greats. A leading theoretician, Belladonna was the principle inventor of the Roman Club system of bidding and, with Benito Garozzo, created Super Precision, a complex strong club based method. Belladonna was the number one ranked player in the world for many years according to the WBF's masterpoint scheme and for many years would also have won a sizable number of votes from his peers as being the best player in the world. Certainly, he was regarded as being the best technical player a- round. I can also speak from personal experience in saying that he was one of the nicest players in top class bridge. The story of Giorgio Belladonna is really the story of a very great team, the Italian Blue Team. There have been other powerful teams in the history of bridge but the Blue Team were, without question, the finest team the world has yet seen and their achievements are without parallel. The Blue Team consisted of eight very fine players : Eugenio Chiaradia, Guglielmo Siniscalco, Mimmo D'Alelio, Walter Avarelli, Camillo Pabis-Ticci, Giorgio Belladonna, and Pietro Forquet and Benito Garozzo, who are also to be found in this volume. As important as the players was the non-playing captain, Carlo Alberto Perroux.

  • Bridge Bidding - Standard American Yellow Card
    Bridge Bidding - Standard American Yellow Card Nicolae Sfetcu Published by Nicolae Sfetcu Second Edition Copyright 2014 Nicolae Sfetcu PREVIEW Contract Bridge Game type: trick-taking game Players: 4 Skills required: Memory, tactics, probability, communication Cards: 52 Deck: French Play: Clockwise Card rank: (highest to lowest) A K Q J 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 Playing time: WBF tournament games = 7.5 minutes per deal Random chance: Low to moderate depending on variant played Related games: Whist, Auction bridge Contract bridge, usually known simply as bridge, is a trick-taking card game using a standard deck of 52 playing cards played by four players in two competing partnerships with partners sitting opposite each other around a small table. For purposes of scoring and reference, each player is identified by one of the points of the compass and thus North and South play against East and West. The game consists of several deals each progressing through four phases: dealing the cards, the auction (also referred to as bidding), playing the hand, and scoring the results. Dealing the cards and scoring the results are procedural activities while the auction and playing the hand are the two actively competitive phases of the game. Dealing: Partnerships are self-determined or by a cut of the cards, the two highest cut playing against the two lowest; the first dealer is the player cutting the highest card. Cards are dealt clockwise, one at a time and face down starting on the dealer's left so that each player receives thirteen cards. In duplicate bridge the dealer is predetermined by the board; the board also contains the four hands which have been dealt and placed in the board prior to commencement of the game.
