26-W201 Tricks Aren’t Just for Kids: The Basics of Bridge – Allan Terplawy

In this class you will learn everything you need to know to participate in a game of bridge, either at home or at a bridge club. Starting with introductory concepts and game objectives, you will move through a curriculum that includes hand evaluation, scoring, the bidding messages, requirements for opening the bidding and responding, rebids by opener and responder, and guidelines for play and defence. Students will learn concepts and immediately apply them through the play of the hand.
