Bridge: With Skills

This class is for players with skills, those needing a refresher, and those who are ready for more complex play. The goal--to build a firm foundation for your bidding and declarer and defensive play. We'll use Standard American bidding based on 5-card majors and will cover important bidding conventions such as Blackwood, Stayman, transfers and negative doubles. Building on that knowledge, we'll take it to the next level with competitive conventions like Jacoby 2NT, Support Doubles and New Minor Forcing. The class will also cover advances in defensive play: what to discard, giving count, and how to use suit preference signals.

The six-week class will be guided by our instructor, Diamond Life Master Mike Hess who will use a combination of the Crisfield book, Bridgebase and ACBL software to demonstrate and guide you through all the intricacies of this fascinating game. Mike will be there guiding and instructing you in all facets of the game.

Required text: Bridge for Everyone by D. W. Crisfield is available at Elm Street Books in New Canaan, Books on Common in Ridgefield, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon.
