  • Squeeze Plays

    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.

    University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English Counting Trumps The language of the card game Bridge and its status as a variety of English B.A. Essay Sigurbjörn Haraldsson Kt.: 170379-5199 Supervisor: Pétur Knútsson January 2009 Summary This essay discusses the sociolinguistic aspect of dialect variations in the English language, with the focus on spoken language. I briefly discuss various social influences and attributes of dialect variations such as social class, ethnicity, age and gender. Moreover, I discuss the sociolinguistic concepts of the language variations of registers, and styles, with a special emphasis on jargons, and the affiliation these concepts have with one another. I will discuss various aspects of these concepts and attempt to explain how they are defined within the field of sociolinguistics. Finally I examine the jargon of the card game bridge in some detail, presenting many examples from the jargon of bridge with explanations of those words and phrases. This examination of the jargon of bridge is accompanied by a brief overview of the mechanism of the game of bridge for the purpose of clarification in respect to the specialized words and phrases in the jargon of bridge. 1 Contents Summary .................................................................................................... 1 Introduction................................................................................................. 3 Social dialects ...........................................................................................
