Knowing what to do on defense is not easy, but definitely is necessary. However, unless you also know when to do it, the outcome will often not be the one you are looking for.
Good planning is just as important for the defenders as it is for declarer. Unfortunately, because you get to see only half of your side's assets, it is usually more difficult to do.
A non-expert will never be able to defend as well as an expert. However, when shown the right way to size up a hand, every player can learn to defend better than they presently do.
This lesson will significantly improve your defense. The 15 challenging deals will provide an opportunity to provide a better understanding of ALL of the following:

• The correct way to think at trick 1 before you turn your card over
• How counting HCP can frequently enable you to find the killing defense
• The great benefits of also counting distribution and # of tricks
• How to draw inferences from declarer's line of play
• How to "tell" partner the way you want him to defend
• How to get the most out of partner's signal
• When to say no to "second-hand low"
• Know how you can prepare to "duck smoothly"
