Dear EBTA Teacher
Following on from our previous communication, I am writing to let you know that the revised version of our Bridge for All book, Continuing Bridge (the green book) is now available for purchase from the Bridge Warehouse.
Continuing Bridge has been updated in line with the system changes already made to Beginning Bridge and now has a more logical ordering of material as well as a clearer referencing system. The Teachers’ notes, system file and handbanks have also been updated. Errors found in the old version have been removed or corrected.
The following topics have been added or amended:
● Developing the auction
● Cue bid opposite a take out double
● Unassuming Cue Bids
● Red suit transfers after 2NT
● Weak Jump overcalls as standard
● 4-4-4-1 section expanded in a final countdown chapter
● Fourth suit forcing clarified
● “What Have I learned?” included at the end of each chapter
● Glossary added and building on Beginning Bridge glossary
The following topics have been removed:
● References to Baron
● Remaining strong two references
● Strong King leads against No Trump contracts
● Overcalling on a strong 4 card suit
● Pre-empting with a side four card major
● Splinters
Some copies of the older version of the book are still available and they can be purchased at the reduced price of £10.00. Either book can be ordered via the Bridge Warehouse or by emailing lisa@ebedcio.org.uk.
Please note: Due to the C-19 impacts on EBED, we cannot guarantee that book orders will be processed immediately.
Yours Sincerely
Giorgio Provenza
Chief Executive Officer
