Each seminar is 'stand alone' but the concepts involved are cumulative. So, in order to get the most out of the course, it is desirable to attend all four. However, there will be hand outs and copies of the slides used in the presentations available on the club website for those who may have to miss a session.
The club hope that attendees will stay on and play in the club’s Friday night tournament at 18:45hrs, to encourage this, we will be taking orders on the night for carry out food from attendees for those that want to eat between Mike’s lesson and the evening session.
The series title is: Improve Your thinking at Bridge.
Description: These seminars are designed for players who are comfortable competing at club events but wish to improve - particularly in those difficult areas of the game, such as defending and dealing with competitive bidding.
Each session will be approximately 2 hours long and will comprise of a 40 minute presentation, drawing on pre-work that will be sent out in advance, followed by playing some hands and then discussing key points from these hands. There will also be a "ask Mike anything" opportunity for those who wish to stay on at the end.
Presentation 1:- "Defending is hard!" An overview of the principles involved in being a good defender and an introduction to the ideas to be covered in presentations 2 and 3.
Presentation 2:- "What should I lead - and why". As well as examining how you can tell when to make the killing lead, we will look at various ways partner should react at trick one - and challenge some common practice.
Presentation 3:- "Communicating with partner when defending - legal ways to get your message across!" This session will discuss the theory, and look at some of the popular methods, of signalling/discarding.
Presentation 4:- "Why do the opponents bid up and make it difficult - and when to do this yourself?" We will look at some of the common situations that occur - and learn about the Law, which will help you get many of them right.
