To bid in a controlled auction to a successful slam is one of the great pleasures of bridge. 'Understanding Slam Bidding' teaches you the important modern conventions, but more importantly, it shows you how to think so that you can tell whether a card in your hand is just what partner wants, or is waste paper. If you take the time to study this book you will find yourself bidding successful slams with fewer points than is normally considered necessary, and you will avoid bidding slams that are doomed to fail when you have lots of points but no fit.
Ron Klinger, internationally recognised as one of the world's leading bridge writers, players and teachers, has combined with Andrew Kambites, a leading British bridge teacher and writer, in nine highly-regarded books. Ron Klinger lives in Sydney, Australia. Andrew Kambites lives in Stroud, Gloucestershire.
