Hobbies, quizzes & games; Bridge

Most bridge books ignore the fact that bridge is a game between opponents. Instead, they teach players how to strive for theoretical perfection in bidding and play. Dan Romm isn't interested in that - he's interested in winning, which is something he has done for more than forty years against the best players around. Romm also isn't very interested in tournaments - mostly he plays for money; he plays with and against world champions, and is a consistent winner. The way he accomplishes this, the art of treating bridge as a four-person competition, not as a one or two-person mathematical exercise, is the subject of this book. Psychology, deception, and misdirection are among a host of (legal!) tactics that the reader can learn to use himself, on the way to winning more often. This work includes a foreword by Paul Soloway, a many-times World Bridge Champion. It teaches streetwise bridge tactics - a poker player's attitude to winning at bridge.
