This spring features more great bridge courses
at the beautiful Pasadena Bridge Club.
Special! Robert Todd Day
Robert is one of my mentors, and one of the
most engaging and understandable teachers of the
game. Rather than teaching endless conventions,
he concentrates on how to think, evaluate, and
strategize at the bridge table.
Recommended for novice and highly skilled
players alike!

Bridge Basics 3 - Popular Conventions
This is the third course in Audrey Grant's
Bridge Basics series, and introduces the most
popular and useful bidding conventions for
playing bridge at any level: Stayman, Jacoby
Transfer Bids, strong hand openings, and slam
bidding.
Improving Your Judgment - Doubles
The takeout double is arguably the most
powerful and useful call in bridge. Let's take
some time to dig into takeout doubles in detail,
including responding to (advancing) your
partner's double, and doubler's next actions.
We'll look at edge cases where you can use a
double (or perhaps shouldn't!). And as with all
of our classes, it comes with great hands to
practice declaring and defending.
Bridge Basics 1 - Introduction
Take it for your first time, or revisit again!
There's no better class for learning or
reviewing the fundamentals of bridge.
We start with the play of the hand. After
working out how tricks can be won by declarer,
we study hands to discover HOW HIGH and WHERE a
hand should be played, and learn the language of
Standard American bidding to reach the best
contract.
Only a handful of seats remain! Sign up with
PCC Extension soon to save yours.
