Hi there “Wednesday Review” readers. I would be grateful if you were to take part in a new series, which is based on a new book I want to begin, one that allows the readers to rate themselves as bridge players, as well as to learn to improve their bridge.
Here are two questions that you can answer (please email to me at villyn@xtra.co.nz) and when you do I will send you the next question, based on your answers. Please give it a go! If one of the readers can tell me how to show the proper suit symbols in e-mails, please tell me!

The bidding has been
