Description
Bridge is a game that you master over time, which means that there is always more to learn. Not unlike karate where students earn different color belts striving for the coveted black belt, bridge players earn masterpoints on the way to becoming a Life Master. The second level of bridge instruction, The Improver Series” is taught in 8-week online modules. The 8-week Spring 2023 Improve Module 4 will cover Competitive Bidding and Defense. You will learn about preemptive opening bids, the overcall, the takeout double and the negative double. The defense topics include opening lead, signaling, second-hand play and 3rd-hand play. The goal of the improver series is to solidify the knowledge that the students learned in the basic bridge series.
