I'LL discuss bidding according

to the point-count method so that beginners and average play- ers can learn how the experts bid. On the other days of the weet I'll follow my usual prac tice of trying to mix entertain- ment with instruction.

Just In case you're not familiar with with the point-count, here it is: count 4 points for each ace in your hand; 3 for each king; 2 for each queen; for each jack.

There are 10 points in each muit, and 40 points in the catiro deck. You and your partner usually need 201 points to make a Kame; 33

33 points for a small stam; 37 for a grand slam.

In today's -hand South opens the bidding property with a bid

of one spade. He has a count of points, of which 10 points org

high cards, South counts points for distribution, and it doesn't matter much whether he point for cach of his long suits or whether he counts 1 point for each of his doubletons.

It adds up to the same total in the end.

YOUR BIRTHDAY....... by STELLA would show at least 8 points.
