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.

  • Crocodile Coup
    Crocodile Coup Let’s face it. There are some plays or maneuvers in bridge that are just more interesting than others......if only for the name they carry. Such is the Crocodile Coup. A favorite subject of bridge players is declarer play and, specifically, card combinations. Usually, with a sense of humor, they present situations as best they can and solicit comments, suggestions, and remedies of the situation. This is how the situation called the Crocodile Coup got its name. A crocodile just swims above the surface of the water and opens its mouth wide, thus presenting itself as an impending threat. Anyone observing this action would take steps to retreat before the jaws of the crocodile reach out for him. In bridge there are situations when the opponents become the crocodile. A Crocodile Coup is a defensive maneuver and portrays itself as a threatening action to prevent declarer from following through an intended endplay. It could also be only a scare tactic in order to deceive declarer into believing that his course of action is threatened thus causing declarer to change his plan. The normal execution of a Crocodile Coup is when one defender steps up to play an unnecessarily high card in order to snap up his partner’s high card (but not as high as his card) so that partner doesn’t get endplayed. An example: North Auction: ♠K64 West North East South ♥Q982 2♦ Pass Pass 3♥ ♦742 Pass 4♥ Pass Pass ♣Q74 Pass West East ♠QJ2 ♠A109853 ♥10 ♥75 ♦AQJ986 ♦K ♣932 ♣J1086 South ♠7 ♥AKJ643 ♦1053 ♣AK5 West leads the Queen of Spades, which holds the trick.

  • Cape Town BULLETIN #7 Mon 16 March 2020 Compiled By: Neil Hayward a World
    South African Bridge Federation 2020 Congress – Cape Town BULLETIN #7 Mon 16 March 2020 Compiled by: Neil Hayward A World Bridge Champion Arrives in South Africa Sally Brock has arrived in Cape Town to play in the pairs competition in the 2020 South African Congress. We have a big name here: five women’s European Championships, and six world teams championships: two Venice Cups, two World Team Olympiads, and two McConnell Cups. That adds up to an imposing CV in the bridge world. She is bridge correspondent at the Sunday Times and has around 14 books to her credit as an author. She will be partnering Barry Myers (pictured above) during our congress. Barry has represented England in the Camrose Cup (contested by the countries making up the United Kingdom).

Barry rejected the idea of trying to engineer a ruff in the dummy, which makes 12 tricks your limit. While you might settle for 12 tricks in teams, chasing extra tricks in a pairs context is a winning policy. 1 On a Point of Law If you say to dummy, “Throw anything” when a discard is required, don’t be put out if a defender steps in and says something like: “Please make it the diamond.” Your instruction to throw anything allows the defenders to nominate a card of their choice.
