• Take a deep  breath,

• Then... either bid, or pass.

NEW BOOK: "Bridge: Thinking Outside the Box". As the name suggests, this is an excellent book on how to expand your thinking about bidding and playing the weird hands that inevitably come up in every game. Although this book contains a lot of topics for advanced bridge players and partnerships, novices with more than a year of playing under their belt can also learn a lot by studying this book.
