SIMPLE SQUEEZES

MADE SIMPLE

The single or simple squeeze accounts for 90% of squeezes and 90% of this book deals with simple squeezes.

TO RUFF OR NOT TO RUFF

That Is the Question

by James Marsh Sternberg MD (Dr J), Danny Kleinman ...

To ruff or not to ruff. The question seems so easy. To draw trumps promptly or is there something else to do first? Declarer has so many options. Ruff in dummy, a ruffing finesse, a crossruff, a dummy reversal, even a trump coup or scoring a trump ‘en passant’. And preventing the opponents from obtaining ruffs. What about the defenders? Should they be the ones to draw trumps? Can they spin straw ... Read more

Solving the Mystery of the Redouble

by James Marsh Sternberg MD (Dr J), Danny Kleinman ...

More often than any other calls in bridge, redoubles produce confusion. When they do, the resulting disasters are more catastrophic than any others. Many doubles originally treated as penalty have been supplanted by conventional doubles. So also many "business" redoubles, originally used to quadruple the stakes, have been diverted to other uses. In this book we shall show you how to tell the ... Read more

An Entry, an Entry

My Kingdom for an Entry

by James Marsh Sternberg MD (Dr J), Danny Kleinman ...

This little word is vital in every bridge player’s lexicon in it’s entirety, and especially important is the final syllable- TRY. A clear understanding of this topic should be one of the top priorities of every bridge player. When the dummy comes down, both the declarer and the defenders should be thinking about entries.

“Second Hand High, Third Hand Not so High”

No Rules, Just Right

by James Marsh Sternberg MD, Danny Kleinman ...

“Second hand low” and “third hand high” are adages we learned in Bridge 101 along with others like “cover an honor with an honor” and “always return your partner’s suit.” These so-called rules will get you by, but they won’t see you very far. Second hand must become familiar with certain basic positions to try to foil declarer’s plans, often by playing second hand high. Likewise, many contracts ... Read more

Card play at bridge embraces both declarer play and defense. Hundreds of books have been written about it. Our approach here, as in our previous books, is to focus on a particular deal type. Repeated experience with a theme makes it easier to recognize deal types and employ the appropriate techniques for each. A common and important line of play is elimination play, eliminating the side suits to ... Read more

It’s Loser - on - Loser

by James Marsh Sternberg MD, Danny Kleinman ...

Just what is LOL? Yes, a common abbreviation for Laughing Out Loud, and often used to refer to a Little Old Lady, but in bridge it means a Loser-On-Loser play. At times a declarer can improve his/her situation by playing a losing card from one hand on a loser in a different suit from the hand opposite. This occurs when a player has a loser in two suits but can arrange to lose them both on one ... Read more

The Search for a Second Suit

It's in Here Somewhere

by James Marsh Sternberg MD, Danny Kleinman ...

Becoming a good declarer starts with some basic principles. All the books tell you the same thing; before playing to Trick 1, think and form a plan. But what should you think about? Players often look at a deal and see a new mystery, a complex problem. They become overwhelmed. Of all the ways of winning tricks, cashing high cards and taking finesses are easiest. But establishing a long suit ... Read more

Suit Preference

The Abused and Misused Signal

by James Marsh Sternberg MD, Danny Kleinman ...

SUIT PREFERENCE SIGNALS If there was ever an area in bridge that resembles walking thru a mine field this is it. No topic causes more confusion and arguments than suit preference signals. “Partner, I played a deuce. Why didn’t you switch to a club?” is heard everywhere all the time. Most signals in bridge are attitude and some are count. At the end of the line are suit preference signals. And yet, ... Read more

Playing to Trick One

There Are No Mulligans in Bridge

by James Marsh Sternberg MD ...

Bridge is a game of mistakes.The best players make fewer mistakes. It’s not a matter of being brilliant The real expert players never make basic mistakes,they keep the ball in the court, in the fairway. Sure there is an occasional hand where they make a brilliant play but that’s not what distinguishes the true expert from the good player. One often hears an expert say I’ve seen this hand before”. ... Read more
