Hi ,

From the return to lockdown in the UK to the elections in NZ and the US, I imagine quite a few of us have been feeling anxious or overwhelmed recently. I sure have. I am so grateful for being able to connect with so many of you in learning together from our wonderful teachers. Thank you to everyone who helps make the classes so friendly and welcoming, bright moments I look forward to each week.

Today's is the third of four new free short video lessons in Tina McVeigh's Common Mistakes in Bridge.

Encouraged by your positive feedback (thank you!!!), Tina and I have been hard at work on a new series of ten new Common Mistakes in Bidding videos! Beginning shortly after Christmas, enrolled students will receive a new video lesson each week. We'd love to have you join Tina's course - Learn more here.

Please take good care of yourself. Wishing you all the best,

Bajir

Your right-hand opponent opens 1♦. What is your bid?

It is always a good idea to enter the auction after an opponent has bid. Giving your opponents an easy uninterrupted ride is often the key to a bad

result.

You have nearly an opening hand here. Is there any way that you can tell

your partner this?
