I will demonstrate how you use a very popular form of Blackwood, known as 1430 Roman Key Card. This helps you to find out if your partner has any aces as well as the king of the trump suit. You will ask if your partner has the queen.
You must also learn control bids in order to protect against inappropriate slam attempts. Then we will move on to slightly more advanced levels that will complete the picture.
Bid Your Slams! is taught in 8 week increments. Often, a class builds on previous ones. Don’t worry if you miss a session. You will be provided with good quality recordings, hands and class notes (given in advance) so you will never fall behind.
What's included?
* 8 two-hour in person classes (including 2 practice sessions to help reinforce the material.)
* Access to the live interactive broadcast. You will be able to be the declarer and play all the hands online.
* Access to recordings of all the classes.
* Class notes for every session.
* Copies of the hands we play with explanations.
* Links allowing you to replay the hands as many times as you wish.
* Lunch at the Club, including soft drinks, coffee and snacks.
Schedule: Tuesdays 1:00 – 3:00 PM May 26, June 2, 23, 30, July 7, 14, 28 & Aug 4. Note: No classes June 9, 16 or July 21.
The cost is $535 for the 8-lesson course, ($565 when paid by credit card.) If you wish to participate online only, streamers pay $480.
Use this course to expand your bidding arsenal. You will become a much better bidder than when you started.
Please note: If you would like to take this course and have not yet taken my 2 over 1 course, please reach out to me to make sure you have the prerequisite training to take this course.
Cancellation policy:
Given the limited space in each class, we encourage you to register as far in advance as possible. However, we understand that sometimes schedules change. Your payment will be refunded if you withdraw at least 3 days before the class begins. The course fee is not refundable after the first class.
