Improvers' Lesson - Jacoby 2NT and 3NT

If you would like to become an accomplished bridge player like the ladies pictured above, then you need to be continually expanding your knowledge.

Jacoby is an extremely important convention as it immediately shows that you and partner have game on and may also indicate slam possibilities.

Come along and join in this free session, which includes instruction notes and practice hands.

Monday, 7 September from 1:00pm till approx. 3:30pm.

Everyone welcome!

Bridge NSW is encouraging us to invite our friends to join the bridge community.

If you enjoy this challenging pastime, then perhaps you would like to share the fun with a friend.

Introducing ..... Maretta Callow

Today I am delighted to have the opportunity to introduce my friend Maretta Callow.

As we all know, Maretta doesn't like to draw attention to herself so I asked her a few questions and here are her responses:

  1. HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN PLAYING BRIDGE?

    I started lessons in August, 2010 when Judy Scott was the teacher.

     

  2. DO YOU COME FROM A CARD-PLAYING FAMILY?
