This will be the final “What and Why” for now, as I will be busy with some improver lessons at the Hutt Club. These will be aimed at newer players who want to go to the next step. The lesson hands and notes can be found on the NZ Bridge web site but I will be adding one or two comments from my own perspective, hoping that these will help the improver to further understand the game.
The following deal comes from a teams match.
