Présentation de l'éditeur

It is quite unnecessary to know anything of either Whist orB ridge to readily learn to play a good game of Auction Bridge. The three games have much in common, but some of the principles involved are so radically different that a beginner who knows nothing of the older game can about as readily learn what Whist and Bridge players really know of the new game as the latter players can unlearn what does not apply to it. The closer a player follows the probabilities on sizing up his hand, bidding, doubling, redoubling, leading, and so on, the bigger his score will average. This is the first work on Auction Bridge to enter thoroughly into the mathematical probabilities of the game. Minor changes have resulted in the rules for the play of the cards to give their holder the benefit of increased chances to win. The great changes from methods commonly used by the average player come in the bidding system which is based upon mathematical facts. A player should start his game with all possible chances in his favor.
