This course goes beyond the topics from Intermediate Bridge I and Intermediate Bridge II. It is for bridge players who have a minimum of two years experience playing duplicate bridge.
You will learn powerful and practical bidding, play and defense concept including:
There are exercises in class, homework outside of class, and each evening finishes by playing deals related to the topic. Snacks are also provided. You will be amazed at what you will learn, even if you have played for years and years!
The in-class exercises are available in electronic format so students can play the hands at home and receive commentary on their bidding and play (requires Bridge Baron software).
Our course lecturer is the very popular Frank Smoot who has taught bridge to beginners and beyond in Palo Alto for 15+ years. Frank and our wonderful volunteers give students individual attention which helps our students learn in a fun environment.
