Part 7 -- After we open 1 MAJ
In this series (started in January, 2008) I am taking the
(intermediate) readers through the convention card--LC style.
Keeping It Simple, Sweetheart.
Last month, we started the 1-MAJ section, and this month we continue to explore that topic with interference and Passed-Hand bidding. |

One way or the other, I'll be there
This month, I reported on our heart-breaking finals loss. Our
team did not win the right to represent the United States in
China.
However, I'm going anyway! It won't be as a player, but as a teacher. Please help me spread the word about my Grand Asia tour planned for September and October of 2009. Click here for the details of the ambitious plans I've made (including visits to local bridge clubs in China and Japan where I will give lectures). |

Let's Make a Deal
All good players have to know the

percentage play when an honor drops from an opponent.
This Theory has a reputation as being impossible to understand. I've tried to explain it for you. Even if the numbers have your head spinning, you can still play the relevant suits correctly. |
