  • 2014 IBPA Awards Document
    2014 IBPA Awards John Carruthers Sanya, Hainan, China Monday, October 20, 2014 Revised Wednesday, October 22, 2014 The Master Point Press Book of the Year The Art of Declarer Play by Tim Bourke & Justin Corfield, KD Books & Publishing, USA 386 pp., paperback, $26.00 This year we had a plethora of terrific books to choose among for our Book of the Year. In another year, three of our other candidates might have won the award. However, this year, one book stood out from the rest. The Art of Declarer Play belongs in the ranks of Watson, Reese and Kelsey as one of the best books on declarer play ever written. If you buy only one bridge book this year, this should be the one. From the publisher: “Anybody can make straightforward contracts. The Art of Declarer Play is about how to handle the rest. If you already have a good grasp of declarer play technique, the blocking and unblocking plays, the eliminations and the squeezes, then this is the book for you. Bourke and Corfield begin where most of the other books finish, and reveal what goes on inside the mind of an expert, explaining how to anticipate the likely distribution, how to use logic and visualization, how to listen to the cards, and many other ways to make ‘impossible’ contracts. By understanding the thought processes that lead to a successful strategy in the most challenging of contracts, you will be able to replicate them for yourself, and bid with the confidence that comes from expert-level declarer play.” “If you want your card play to improve out of all recognition, If you want to learn the secrets of expert- level technique, If you are not afraid to challenge yourself, then read this book.” TIM BOURKE is one of bridge’s most prolific writers, having co-authored over twenty books.
