The first important factor in contract bridge is to know how to bid your hand correctly. Even HONGKONG SAVINGS BANK. diation transacted. though you are a good player, if you do not arrive at the proper contract, your good play Avails you nothing.
I want to advise my readers to pay more attention, to defensive play. Just because your oppo- nents arrive at a game contract is no reason why you should give up. Always be on the alert to execute some play that may de- feat the contract.
