TURNING OPPONENTS' INTERFERENCE INTO WINNING STRATEGY

November 2025 | Four Week Bridge Course

Your opponents won’t always make bidding easy, but that doesn’t mean you can’t succeed. In this live course, you’ll learn how to make the right bids after the opponents enter the auction, and how you can enter the auction too when the other side has opened. Its a very exciting area of bidding when both sides are vying for the contract, and happens on about half the hands you’ll play.
