52 Bridge Mistakes to Avoid

David Bird is one of the best book authors regarding duplicate bridge fundamentals. This book is a must read for up an coming duplicate players.

Outstanding, a perfect 10 minute read on each mistake to avoid. Highly recommended!

David Bird always adds a subtle depth to his writings.

Well worth reading.

A of chit chat over mistakes by the masters. Boring as all get out.

excellent book for players

Disappointing; not clearly written.

as expected

David Bird is a prolific writer yet manages to maintain a very high standard. I just wish there really are only 52 bridge mistakes to avoid! The book is well presented and very easy to read. Anyone mastering all the topics will become a very good player indeed. The book is divided into themes with a chapter for each. Everything is well explained. My only criticism is that when studying each hand what to be looking for has already been given away by the chapter heading. This is not a serious criticism but I do like to test myself before reading bridge text. The 'mistakes' cover both bidding and play and I suspect only an expert would derive no value from the book. It represent a useful but cheap addition to any bridge library.

Like this book a lot. Keep going back to it when I have time. Some of the mistakes are basic but most of them he shows can be made by Professional Players. I feel all levels of bridge players would find this book useful and helpful. Thoroughly recommend it.
