These three courses are "must take" for any bridge player ready to level-up their game! Bridge Basics 2 - Competitive Bidding This is only the second course in my recommended series of courses for new players, but the material is deep and will serve you for as long as you play the game. Check out the lesson topics: 1. Preemptive Opening Bids 2. Simple Overcalls and Advances 3. Takeout Doubles 4. The Competitive Auction The course finishes with two practice hand sessions that reinforce all of the material. More information at this link <https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/course/competitive-bidding>. * Six Saturday mornings, starting July 22, 9:30-11:30 AM * $115 includes textbook Defense This course may do more to improve your game results than anything else in the catalog! Learn how to work with your partner to find the missing cards at the table, and take the most tricks you can as defenders. For the full eight week lesson plan, follow this link <https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/course/defense>. * Eight Wednesday evenings, starting July 19, 7:00-9:00 PM * $130 includes textbook Two Over One Game Force Two Over One Game Force (or 2/1GF) takes Standard American 5-card Majors and makes one tiny tweak to the meaning of two-over-one bids (such as 1♠ - 2♦). The result is that it becomes easier to discover slam contracts, and find the right game contract. This is the system that I use with all of my tournament partners, and it's "must have" in your repertoire as an advancing player. For the full lesson plan, follow this link <https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/course/two_over_one_game_force>. * Six Thursday evenings, starting July 20, 7:00-9:00 PM * $140 includes the award-winning textbook by Grant and Rodwell Reserve your seat!
