by Brian Senior (Author)
One of the main purposes of the bridge auction is to try to find a trump suit with which both partners are happy. Starting with the basic limit raise, Brian Senior explores all the important methods, both natural and conventional, which the modern player can use to give a partner this piece of good news. At the same time, he emphasizes the importance of developing sound judgement when using conventions, as conventions alone will not improve a player's game. Players are taught how to bid, together with the principles involved, and then how to proceed. The book also looks at the situations in which a player might want to raise partner, or when the player's suit has already been raised.
