More Commonly Used Conventions

Rating:
Summary: The New Testament Bridge Bible
Review: This book takes over where "Commonly Used Conventions" leaves off. It covers negative and other types of conventional doubles, overcalls - including Unusual NT and Michaels, slam bidding - including Blackwood and Gerber (with appendix coverage of Roman Key Card Blackwood) and two-over-one game force. There is an excellent chapter on defensive leads and signals.
For the newer bridge player, I recommend that you get all five of the ACBL Bridge Series books by Audrey Grant. They are used extensively by bridge teachers world-wide.
If you have a reasonable amount of bridge experience with modern (not just Goren) bidding concepts (e.g. "limit bids") and playing and defending techniques, skip the Club Series (recently retitled "Bidding") and go right to this book and "Commonly Used Conventions" as the sources of your next step forward in bidding and playing bridge.
