Self Directed Learning

Room E (for Education)

Room E in the Teaching Area has been dedicated to providing hands of various bridge topics for members to practice.

The following 'topic' hands have been loaded into Room E of the Teaching Area of Bridge Club Live at three different 'Time Slots'.

You can either use this as a 'stand-alone' teaching aid by 'bidding the hand' then revealing how the experts would have bid it or get together with three other friends and bid & play the hands. For the latter you will need to speak to your BCL Bridge Teacher for the PIN to enter the Teaching Area or email us at teachers@bridgeclublive.com

There are multiple hands per 'Slot' for every weekday, giving Students the opportunity of playing more than 200 boards with comprehensive analysis of the Bidding & the Play.

 

We are grateful to ECatsBridge & Nicky Bainbridge at Bridge for Pleasure for providing the above hands and all the Bridge Teachers who have given their time freely and written the commentaries such that all of us can enjoy and improve our Bridge.

ECatsBridge run regular charity Simpairs event, the last one that was hosted by BridgeClubLive in aid of Children in Need helped ECatsBridge raise even more money; at the time of writing they have raised an incredible £1.16m over the 18 years that they have been running these events - further details at https://www.ecatsbridge.com/sims/cin/default.asp

Coaching Corner

We provide a weekly "Double Dummy" Analysis of hands in the Coaching Corner. The DD Analysis shows the range of possible contracts on any one deal and is a useful starting point for discussions with your partner on 'what happened at your table'. Don't forget you can always access your own 'Personal Results' to review your bidding and play and compare with other players and the DDA.

These are the "Double Dummy" Analysis of the hands that are presently in the Coaching Corner
