uiinmnG pmv in conTRna bridge shows and explains how all-important the play at trick one can be, and how it can affect the destiny of a game or a slam. Continuing victories at the bridge table are not achieved by some lucky fall of the cards. They are won early in the game, most often right at the opening lead when the defenders launch their initial attack. What happens at trick one often leads, inexorably, to victory or defeat. By combining actual examples with clear explanations, Fred Karpin gives the modern bridge player new insights into the technique of play. Fred Karpin is one of the top bridge players in this country. He is a Life Master of the American Contract Bridge League and an author and analyst of international fame. Mr. Karpin wrote the first book on the point-count system of bidding. This is his fifth book about bridge. "A born teacher... as well as a first class analyst" —Alfred Sheinwold, bridge authority and columnist
