Clues from the Bidding Book

Many declarers handicap themselves by playing the cards in front of their noses without regard to the activities of the defenders. Yet defensive bidding - or lack of it - can often provide vital clues to the winning line of play, transforming a guess into a near certainty. With the aid of 76 original and instructive hands Julian Pottage shows how this magic works. Readers who apply their mind to these problems and learn to read the clues from the bidding will soon find themselves making contracts that formerly seemed beyond reach.
