2 comments about A Treasury of Bridge Tips: 540 Bidding Tips to Improve Your Partner's Game.
- Invaluable book of the finer points to the game. #30 tells you when you DON'T respond 4 card suits up the line! This book is crammed with bits of wisdom that would take you 10 years to accumulate thru your own experiences. Make life easy! Let Eddie tell you. The comments are brief. Excellent examples. Great sense of humor as always. I highly recommend to all. I will quote him in my online lessons. IngridH @okbridge
- The book has some good sections, but some parts are covered better in other books. It's not a bad book, just not a great book. It wasn't particularly fun to read (ok there were a few amizing quips).
Many of the tips were in the form of "In this situation with X do Y"
Of all of Eddie Kantars books I liked this least.
I'm not sure who its aimed at.
Its not presented in a way that someone who is unfamilair with the material will learn it. It's more geared towards someone who already knows the material and is looking for tips. It may help you identify some mistakes in your knowledge of fundamentals. The problem is the tips don't always explain why.
"Do it" as opposed to "This is why you should do it" is not all that helpful.
I much prefered Kantars Modern and Advanced bridge defense (Big Red) to his defensive tips book for teh same reason. An abridge version of technical (and dry) material doesn't do the subject justice and is not fun to read. I'd rather read a longer book that includes the "why".
