Bridge for Beginners: A Complete Course

Grant, Audrey

Batsford

In this bridge biography Zia Mahmoud - Pakistan's team leader - reveals his unique strategy for success in bridge. Arguing that there is no correct bid or even play of cards, he emphasizes psychology, risk and bluff. He recounts, for example, ways of establishing table presence, how to get the best from your partner and the worst from your opponents, and how to bid differently against both good and bad players. Drawing on actual championship hands, and packed with anecdotes of world famous players, this book should appeal to social and club players alike.

If you have never been in love, don't read this book! If you have never thought of yourself as a little bit crazy, don't read this book! But if you believe in fairy tales and fantasy, romance and obsession, read on -- this book is for you. Zia says, "This book is for all those people who ever started doing something and became so involved that they lost all track of time, because the 'thing' that I started doing was playing bridge and the time that flew so painlessly by was my life.". Bridge My Way is the irresistible story of the world's most flamboyant bridge player -- Zia -- how he rose in a few short years from an unknown rubber bridge player to the world's most charismatic bridge star.
