babalu1997 Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Richard Strickland will be starting two online bridge classes to be held at the Lesson Public Club. Both series and the materials are free and all bbo members are welcome. Richard has been teaching for several decades, but has been teaching online for nearly 13 years. To join the lessons, when logging on to BBO, choose: 1. Click to watch or play bridge2. Choose public clubs3. Choose Lesson Club 4. Join the teaching table Or you Can also add his screen name to your friends list and join the lesson table as a kibitzer: richardrls I have taken 3 of his lesson series—dsa, revised ks and granny`s kiss. It is good stuff. Class on DSA: Two hours of fresh material on Disciplined Bridge weekly for at least 30 weeks. Classes will be held each Tuesday evening at 6:00 PM Eastern time (instructor arrives 1/2 hour early to answer questions) with class lasting exactly 1.5 hours. A repeat session is held every Tuesday at Noon Eastern time. The class covers all aspects of bridge, including play of the hand, and it focuses on providing Focus, Discipline, and Patience to your bridge game. The course will include the provision of both a 30 page spreadsheet on the bidding involved and a complete, interactive convention card for use in matchpoint tournaments Class on "Granny's Kiss": Two hours of fresh material on the very best IMP bidding system in the world. Classes will be held each Friday at Noon Central time with a repeat session at 6 PM Eastern that same day. Again, the instructor will arrive half hour early to take questions or abuse. This class will give you a really unbeatable Imp bidding system. Trying to use this system for matchpoints would bring dismal failure by your partnership. Please note: this 30 week course is for partnerships, not individual players. The course will include the provision of a both a 30 page spreadsheet on all the bids used in the system and a complete, interactive convention card for use in imp tournaments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
