"A revised re-issue of a classic bridge textbook, generally regarded as the definitive guide to the oldest (and most useful) convention in the game - the takeout double."--Publisher description.
"A major contribution to bidding theory, easy to understand and fun to read at the same time" -- Publisher description.
This revised and expanded edition examines bridge auctions where the opponents bid something and you have the opportunity to either let them have it or to balance. The cost of not balancing can be huge, but you must weigh the cost of passing against the cost of bidding and getting a bad result. Lawrence's discussion of hand evaluation and planning a balancing auction goes beyond generic rules. Hundreds of examples help you develop judgment
Explains twenty-five bidding conventions, including the grand slam force, lead-directing doubles, negative doubles, new minor forcing, responsive doubles, reverse Drury, splinter bids, Stayman, takeout doubles, and weak two-bids.
Larry Cohen teaches Doubles (and Redoubles) in contract bridge bidding. Many examples/quizzes.
Bridge.
A detailed discussion of signals, leads, matchpoints, defensive conventions and protecting partner.
A follow-up book from the author team that produced the award-winning and best-selling 25 Bridge Conventions You Should Know. Aimed at the same novice/social player audience as their first book, this new title deals with competitive auctions in which the opponents have opened the bidding. This is the most complex area of bridge bidding, and has never up to now been dealt with comprehensively in a book that is understandable for non-experts.
