Description
Author: Andrew Garnett
A BridgeCentric Book
This book teaches a variable Strong One No Trump system with 14-16HCP, 15-17HCP and 15-18HCP ranges and utilizes a 2 spade size-asking bid which increases the number of conventions and treatments that can be played so any hand you hold becomes easier to represent in the auction . You will learn all the basics like Stayman, Jacoby transfers, minor-suit transfers, RKC 3014, and Gerber, as well as Baze, Smolen, minor-suit Stayman, two-suited Key Card, Lebensohl and Transfer Lebensohl.
Some of these conventions are advanced, this shouldn't scare you away from them. Learn and apply what you can to one convention at a time and when you master that convention, move on to the next. Remember that Bridge is a game of mistakes and when anyone learns something new, mistakes will be made, conventions and treatments will be forgotten. Mistakes represent learning moments, embrace them.
