The Pattaya bridge club has a very comprehensive conventions section. |
|
| |
|
Many commom conventions are clearly explained and there are also a number of completely new conventions. There is also an interesting section that compares one convention with a similar one (defences to 1NT for example) or compares a number of meanings for the same bid (such as a 2♦ opening). |

This covers areas that are not applicable to the conventions section. For example, there is an interesting article that briefly explaind "Restricted choice" and shows how it can affect you decision whether to play "eight ever nine never" or finesse. |

An area of bidding that is grossly overlooked by many players (the points pundits). This booklet explains why 4333 type shape is very bad, why high cards belong in long suits, why touching hounours are good and why 'lonely' honours are bad etc. Well worth a read. |
