‘Improve Your Bidding Judgement’
Critical Reviews
-Paul Linxwiler, ACBL Bulletin, Nov 2008
"As the author rightly points out, bidding is where you win and lose at bridge. This concurs with what one of the Italian Blue Team said: the average player would have more chance of making the right contract than he would of making the wrong one.
I found myself in agreement with the author on almost everything he said, not just the principles (he gives a total of 26 tips) but on the actual example hands. There was the odd disagreement in the more complex situations but bridge experts are almost as famous as actuaries are in disagreeing with one another!
Overall the book does exactly what it says on the cover - helps you improve your bidding judgment. Unless you are a multiple world champion, you are almost certain to learn something from read it. What are you waiting for?"

"[This] book on partnership skills ranks among the finest efforts on the topic I have seen. As he says in the preface: This book is all about he thinking that is needed to make good bidding decisions, which will also make life easier for your partner."

"Great advice delivered in easily comprehensible form and backed by well-chosen examples. These 200 pages will definitely improve your bridge and make you a tougher opponent. This book is far too easy to get in the opinion of those who prefer softer opponents!"
