Defending at Bridge: A First Course

By Bill Treble

Book Overview

No bells or whistles, just the plain, simple stuff to get you started on the road to becoming a good defender. In eight easy lessons, this book coves the things you really need to know: opening leads and signaling against notrump and suit contracts, second and third-hand Play, the Rule of Eleven, discards, and basic strategy. Quizzes and example hands make the whole process of learning both fun and productive. Praise for Bill Treble's 'Getting into the Bidding', An excellent intermediate-level book covering contested auctions. The focus is on providing a foundation for choosing and using methods - which are available, which are popular, and what are the trade-offs among them. The Bridge World Book jacket.
