BBO Free July 5 2024

This video is of the July 12, 2024 Free BBO Instant Tournament for members of the Amelia Island Duplicate Bridge Club or anyone interested.

In past videos, I spent most time showing Bergen hand evaluations for our club members. Seems like most of us have that down now. This starts a series complementing the "just declare" daylong event with an emphasis on deal analysis at trick 1 (counting losers, winners, figuring out how many additional tricks you need to establish and how many additional losers -- besides 100% certain losers you identified -- that you can afford to lose.

If any emphasis on Bergen Hand Evaluation sounds strange there is a short video on the Bergen Hand Evaluation method at the following link:    • Summary of Bergen Hand Evaluation  ​ (You can also read about his process in his book "Slam Bidding Made Easy" or in his long series of articles in the ACBL Bulletins during 2019 and 2020). You can also watch a professional player's thoughts on these hands by viewing Peter Hollands' channel on BBO    / peterhollandsbridgevid  .
