  • Bridge Glossary
    Bridge Glossary Above the line In rubber bridge points recorded above a horizontal line on the score-pad. These are extra points, beyond those for tricks bid and made, awarded for holding honour cards in trumps, bonuses for scoring game or slam, for winning a rubber, for overtricks on the declaring side and for under-tricks on the defending side, and for fulfilling doubled or redoubled contracts. ACOL/Acol A bidding system commonly played in the UK. Active An approach to defending a hand that emphasizes quickly setting up winners and taking tricks. See Passive Advance cue bid The cue bid of a first round control that occurs before a partnership has agreed on a suit. Advance sacrifice A sacrifice bid made before the opponents have had an opportunity to determine their optimum contract. For example: 1♦ - 1♠ - Dbl - 5♠. Adverse When you are vulnerable and opponents non-vulnerable. Also called "unfavourable vulnerability vulnerability." Agreement An understanding between partners as to the meaning of a particular bid or defensive play. Alert A method of informing the opponents that partner's bid carries a meaning that they might not expect; alerts are regulated by sponsoring organizations such as EBU, and by individual clubs or organisers of events. Any method of alerting may be authorised including saying "Alert", displaying an Alert card from a bidding box or 'knocking' on the table. Announcement An explanatory statement made by the partner of the player who has just made a bid that is based on a partnership understanding. The purpose of an announcement is similar to that of an Alert.

    The Lock Collector From Tony Beck January/March 2006 Issue No. 10 All Ri ghts Reserved. Copyright ©, R. A. Beck 2006. Editor’s Note: This issue extends the miserly single page biography of Edwin C otterill included in the last one! He stands highly amongst the greatest English lock inventors, particularly for his Climax Det ector lock patented in 1846. This issue contains Part 2: His Middle Age and Lock Inventions. The final Part 3 will follow next i ssue. Most of us will know of Willenhall Lock Museum’s demise and transformation to The Locksmith’s House. All this involved co nsiderable change when the Black Country Living Museum became the new owners in May 2003. Richard Hopkins, who helped them to de al with the complexities of cataloguing the Locks, Keys and Archive material, has kindly contributed an article setting out what was involved. I do hope it will be found interesting, and perhaps some questions will arise. Like - will an Inventory of all the locks, keys and archives be sometime available to view? Does the Museum intend to consult with lock collectors on what items are to be exhibited in the Locksmith’s House apart from those initially on show? Also what plans are there to introduce the Museum’s exhibits held in BCLM’s Dudley store to public view? It’s certainly sad to see the opportunity lost that might have seen finance being provided to expand and create a fine Museum dedicated to locks and keys; like there is in Austria, France, German y, Holland, U.S.A., etc.

For many years he has been planning to assemble an in-depth study of all known card play techniques and their classification.

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.

It is upon-Avon online bridge club. Benjaminised Acol: normal to play the same system after 2♣/2♦ – negative – 2NT as over an opening 2NT, so I was surprised North Dealer South. Game All. Dealer West. Game All. did not use Stayman. In my view the ♠ A 9 4 ♠ J 9 8 correct Acol sequence is: ♥ K 7 6 ♥ A J 10 6 ♦ 2 ♦ K J 7 2 West North East South ♣ A 9 7 6 4 2 ♣ 8 6 Pass Pass Pass 2♣ ♠ Q 10 8 6 3 ♠ J 7 N ♠ Q 4 3 ♠ 10 7 5 2 Pass 2♦ Pass 2NT ♥ Q 9 ♥ 10 8 5 4 2 W E ♥ 7 4 3 N ♥ 9 8 5 2 Pass 3♣ Pass 3♦ ♦ Q J 10 9 5 ♦ K 8 7 3 S W E ♦ 8 5 4 ♦ Q 9 3 Pass 6NT All Pass ♣ 8 ♣ Q 5 S ♣ Q 10 9 4 ♣ J 5 Once South has shown 23 HCP or so, ♠ K 5 2 ♠ A K 6 North knows the values are there for ♥ A J 3 ♥ K Q slam.
