At a Club session have you:-

• missed out on a slam when others have bid it?

• missed out on game and had to settle for a part-score?

• failed to win overtricks when others have?

In short, have you got a poor score on a board and you’re not quite sure what went wrong? Help is now at hand.

A group of the Club’s top players have agreed to participate in a Mentor’s Email service and are ready to answer your questions. The only pre-condition is that your question must refer to a board played at a Club session, so the hands are recorded and can be referenced on our website. This enables the mentor to review the hand and provide the appropriate advice on how it should have been bid and played.

You should send your question by email to Mentors@theyorkbridgeclub.com. In the email title provide the date/ session and board number on which your question is based. Then ask your question and await a response. The aim is to provide a timely response so you can digest the advice when the board is still in mind. 

This service is available to all Club members. Advice will be based on simple systems and will use simple language. If you don’t understand or would like further clarification on the response, just ask a follow up question. 

We hope you find the service useful and will recommend it to other members.
