| Practice Hands |
♠ ♥ ♦ ♣ Topic Based Practice Hands ♠ ♥ ♦ ♣
Sometimes it can be helpful to just play a few hands and chat with your partner about a specific topic that you are either learning or revising. Using the RealBridge platform we have created a facility which allows you to pick your own time to play practice hands focussed on specific topics as either a group of 4 or 8 players. Here’s how it works:
· Go to the Practice hands section of the club shop (click here) where you can see the topics available and buy the desired product stating the date that you would like to play. (One person buys the product – 1 or 2 tables)
· Within a couple of days, you will be sent guidance on how to run the session, notes on the topic that you can look at before playing and a handout which you can circulate after the session has been played.
We
· The coordinator will circulate the links for the session and run the session on the day
· You will play 16 hands and after each hand guidance notes will appear on the table which you can all discuss before moving to the next hand.
· There is no time limit on the session, but expect it to last about 2.5 hours
Currently available are: Declarer Play Strategy, Splinters, Transfers, Law of Total Tricks, Roman Key Card Blackwood, Checkback Stayman, Dealing with Pre-empts and Fourth Round Forcing.
We also have a presentation explaining how the sessions are created. Click here if you are interested to learn more about the setup of Topic Based Hands.
