Social Bridge for Serious Fun

Social Bridge for Serious Fun 
Why has bridge remained the most popular mind game for over 100 years? Some people enjoy devising strategies; others the conflict and competition within the well-mannered bridge etiquette; for others, the auction or a little gamble appeals. For all, the social nature of the game is a draw, and Douglas Bernard here helps you to improve your game and have more fun with bridge.

An invaluable addition to any bridge player's library, Douglas Bernard's Social Bridge With Serious Fun illustrates the author's belief that there is a lot more to bridge than just a card game.

For him, as for many players, it is a perfect opportunity for enjoyable social interaction, while at the same time allowing for the development of the life skills of observation, good judgement, communication, cooperation, planning, flexibility and adaptability.

Whether you are a beginner to the game or an experienced player, this book offers invaluable advice on:
て「 The art of bidding and how to open with a potent and appropriate bid
て「 Bespoke bids
て「 Winning tricks
て「 Building your own planning system
て「 Bridge etiquette

Also included are 101 exercises to help you improve your hand interpretation and bidding skills, followed by tips from the author on the best way to play them.

If you play bridge and enjoy life, this book will enhance both!
