I know many of you aren't local to Pasadena, and I haven't
been doing any online courses for a while.
I would consider doing an online course or coaching
session again for those who might be interested. If that's
you, drop me a note with what you'd like to do, and when
would be the best time and day to do it.
Meanwhile I have some great courses coming soon at the
club in Pasadena:
Robert Todd, May 14
 This
full-day bridge seminar is not to be missed! Robert Todd
is a bridge champion, teacher, author, and former math
professor.
His talks are notable for being accessible by new
players, while having plenty of great stuff for
experienced players as well. I never miss the opportunity
to see him speak at a Nationals or regional tournament,
and he's one of my mentors.
The full day is $90, starting at 9:30. The morning
session will be on slam bidding, and the afternoon on
declarer play "Finesse and so much more."
Make reservations on RSVPBridge.com, or by responding to
this email. (You can pay in advance using R-Bucks on
RSVPBridge if you like!)
Bridge Basics 1
- Introduction, May 20
Share this one with your non-bridge
playing friends, or make plans to revisit this wonderful
"first course" of bridge.
The course will meet on Saturday mornings at 9:30 AM
starting May 20. We'll meet for six sessions, but skip May
27 (Memorial Day) and June 10 (Grand National Teams
District Final).
This is the course many of you took through PCC at Arcadia
High School. it's still a PCC Extension class, but now we
get to hold it at the beautiful Pasadena Bridge Club.
Register on the PCC
Extension site at this link.
Play of the Hand, May
24
This is a great course to follow the Bridge Basics
series. Let's spend eight classes focused on planning and
executing your plan when you're the declarer.
The course meets for eight Wednesday evenings at 7:00,
starting May 24. See the full description and lesson plan
here: https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/course/play_of_the_hand
Improving Your
Judgment - Opening the Bidding, May 11
This course covers the subtleties of making an opening
bid that we don't discuss in the Bridge Basics series.
Your seating position relative to the dealer,
vulnerability, and other factors will change how you
evaluate your hand.
As with all of the Better Bridge courses, you will also
be introduced to play of the hand and defense techniques
that you may not have seen before!
The typical reaction from students of this course is that
it exceeds all expectations. It's highly recommended for
all regular club and aspiring tournament players.
Meeting Thursday evenings at 7:00 PM, for six sessions,
starting May 11. See the full lesson plan here: https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/course/iyj_opening
