MatchPoints: A Deadly Game of Overtricks

Week 1 | M, W, F | Sports Club | Ages 14 and up

Join Grant Vance for a series of three bridge classes that explore all aspects of strategies for pairs games. Geared toward advancing bridge players who already know the basics. Class covers: risking your contract for an overtrick; the Magic +200; when to bid one more; 8 and 9 card trump fits; balancing — never sell out!; matchpoint odds; sacrificing; two ways to win; and bidding the right game.
