[.ca] Standard Bidding with Sayc (ISBN 1897106033)

A Wonderful Resource for Bidding:
This book has been acclaimed by critics around the world. It has become the new standard for what standard bidding is today. According to expert player and critic Julian Pottage, "A few months ago someone asked me to recommend a good, up-to-date book on standard American bidding. I couldn't think of one and so asked my American friends to do so. After much head scratching the best that anyone could come up with was a Kaplan classic - written 40 years ago! This book fills therefore not a gap in the market but a gaping whole." It is well organized, well researched, with illustrative hands that cover the full specturm of SAYC bidding and conventions. According to Pat Harrington of the American Bridge Teachers Association, "Numerous examples are discussed in a manner that makes it clear that judgment can be a factor in your choice of action...Bidding with SAYC provides me with information on standard bidding that fits into my basic lessons nicely. SAYC... is the accepted bidding system for online play and also a very good start for duplicate bridge players. As well as providing great reference material, the book can be used as a text for a course (or - more likely - courses) in SAYC." And according to expert player and prolific bridge writer Marty Bergen, "Online bridge is here to stay, as is the Standard American Yellow Card (SAYC). Acclaimed teachers Ellen Caitlin Pomer and Ned Downey do a great job of explaining what SAYC is all about." What more can I say. Order it NOW!
