Test Your Bridge Play Volume 2 Review: Best book ever written on basic declarer play - Most books provide puzzles, tricks, and gimmicks - things that don't come up in months of play. Far superior to his companion book: Test Your Play - Volume I, this book not only teaches proper techniques, but reinforces them several times throughout the volume! This book is not for experienced or advanced players unless your declarer play is the weak link in your arsenal. Each problem shows you how to assess your holdings, evaluate your assets, recognize your liabilities, learn from the auction, and plan your attack. There are no tricks or misdirection. Every problem demonstrates a BASIC technique in competent declarer play that every player who wishes to succeed at this game needs to know. Students ask me constantly which books they should read to learn how to become a better declarer. Without hesitation, this is the book I tell them to go out and buy. I've handed out probably a half dozen or more copies of this book from MY OWN library. I'm frequently buying more to replace the ones I give away. Want to learn to become to decent declarer? Do what I tell my students to do: Study this book. Do every problem. When you are finished, do them all again! Keep doing them until you get EVERY ONE RIGHT EVERY TIME! This is not an unrealistic expectation. There are 115 problems, and nearly all top players would get 115/115. Don't try to run before you can walk. Once you get to the point where each problem in this book presents no challenge, then you are ready to start studying more advanced topics like throw-ins and squeezes. There are plenty of good books on the market for things like that. This book is exceptional in that you can learn something USEFUL right away. As a bridge teacher, I can't recommend this book highly enough. Review: Simply the Finest Such Book Ever Published - People learn bridge by doing, not by being told what to do, so when I teach bridge, I teach it by putting cards in the hands of my students. Consequently, I am always on the lookout for a great teaching hand. For this reason, I've read most bridge problem books published since I began to play bridge in the 1950s. Finding even a few "great teaching hands" in a book was never assured. It was difficult to find great teaching hands until I bought this book. The majority of the problems here are first rate teaching hands. There is simply no one better at constructing teaching hands. If you want to learn on your own, lay out the cards and play the hands. Then lay out all four hands and do it again. When you finish this book, you will have advanced several levels in your declarer play competence. I have told every one of my students that they should buy a copy of this book and learn whatever they read in it. Finally, the hands are so excellent that if you do not like some of the Std Am. auctions, either use the hand without bidding (assign the contract), or change the hands a little and change the auction to suit your style. The hands are so excellent, any effort to use them will be well worth the effort. There's a Vol. 1 with this same title--but Vol. 2 is one of Kantar's finest books. Vol. 2 is the Mozart of bridge problem books. Vol. 1 is the Salieri :( Among his other problem books, the two best titles are Take All Your Tricks and Take All Your Tricks 2. Enjoy Kantar's great hands! Another bonus: you can always email Eddie Kantar and he will help if you have a question! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,534,172 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #237 in Bridge (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (25) | | Dimensions | 5.5 x 0.51 x 8.5 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1554947758 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1554947751 | | Item Weight | 10.3 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 234 pages | | Publication date | February 1, 2013 | | Publisher | Master Point Press | ## Images ![Test Your Bridge Play Volume 2 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61uYdXnrwbL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best book ever written on basic declarer play *by J***L on June 22, 2009* Most books provide puzzles, tricks, and gimmicks - things that don't come up in months of play.
