New video with Bridget and Caroline
https://youtu.be/31icWL_6g0k
In today's video, Bridget and Caroline practice one of the most useful skills a declarer can develop: counting cards and using hand shapes to deduce who holds what. If you want practical ways to track trumps, follow a side suit, and make decisions mid‑hand, this walk‑through will give you friendly, concrete steps to practice at the table.
How many different hand shapes can you quickly describe? Only a handful of shapes account for a very large proportion of deals. Practicing naming them aloud, writing them on a fridge, or drilling them between deals will change how you process hands at the table.
