    Non-Serious 3NT + Major Structure Updates

    Non-Serious 3NT in full, including the modern expert method of flipping 3S and 3NT when hearts are trump; why we've adapted our four-card limit raise to include three cards with a singleton; and an unnamed slam-bidding tool where showing or telling shortness finds slams that are very tough to bid any other way.

    Major Suit Slam Bidding Practice Q&A 1

    The week before the session, our bidding practice rooms are open to you: bid as many hands as you like, with your partner or with Lia, and post a question on any deal the moment you've bid it. On Thursday we meet live and go through the questions together. The hands do not close when the class ends — they stay in your library to bid again whenever you like.

    Major Suit Slam Bidding Practice Q&A 2

    A second week in the practice rooms with a fresh set of slam auctions, then a live session on the hands you ask about. Both weeks of hands are yours to keep afterwards — bid them again, bring a different partner, or sit down with Lia — along with the recordings of everything we covered.

No class on 26 November, for Thanksgiving, or on 3 December, for the San Diego NABC.

Advanced Study Group with Gavin

advanced

$20.00

usually, per class

Weekly study sessions built around Gavin's Master Series, going into the corners the classes don't reach. Each week has a featured topic — bring questions on it, or bring a hand or a problem you hit at the table. Two students are invited to sit down at a table and bid practice hands live, while the rest of the class works through the problems together. Every session is recorded, so you can watch it back whenever you like.
