DO Read books on card play, defense and bidding. When I learned about bridge in the summer of 1970, I went to a book store and bought Alfred Sheinwold’s “5 Weeks to Winning Bridge.” The next purchase was Louis Watson’s classic, “The Play of the Hand at Bridge.” I read and reread that book and learned a lot from it before I even knew there was such a thing as duplicate. I discovered how little I knew about bidding when I was introduced to duplicate in 1975. The book that helped me the most in bidding was “Judgment at Bridge,” a classic by Mike Lawrence. His other classic, “How to Read Your Opponents’ Cards,” helped me improve my declarer play by leaps and bounds. Eddie Kantar’s books on declarer play were also instrumental in my improvement. low heart. Whoever wins the trick will have to play opponent or the other to give you a chance at your What was most beneficial to me was reading a diamond, solving that problem for you, or some contract, mentally place that card favorably and plan about different situations that come up at the table other suit, allowing you to in one hand and accordingly. all the time.
