by ZiaMahmood (Author)
In this bridge biography Zia Mahmoud - Pakistan's team leader - reveals his unique strategy for success in bridge. Arguing that there is no correct bid or even play of cards, he emphasizes psychology, risk and bluff. He recounts, for example, ways of establishing table presence, how to get the best from your partner and the worst from your opponents, and how to bid differently against both good and bad players. Drawing on actual championship hands, and packed with anecdotes of world famous players, this book should appeal to social and club players alike.
