Two exciting new titles by leading bridge authors are now available from Master Point Press.
Improve your Slam Bidding
by Marc Smith
Whether you learned to play last year or half a century ago, successfully bidding and making a slam is still one of the most thrilling things that happens at the bridge table. Going down in bad slams is even more expensive than missing a good slam. By the time you’ve read this book, you will have a better understanding of how to avoid those costly minus scores at the six-level and higher. Learn when to investigate slam and when to stop safely in game. How do you find out whether partner has the right 12 points? How do you choose which suit to play in? How do you cope with pre-emptive bidding by the opponents? Or, indeed, by partner? When is it right to stop to double the opponents at the five- or sixlevel, and when should you bid on? This book provides you with the tools you need to improve your slam bidding. After all, we all enjoy writing large plus scores on our scorecard.
