Intermediate Courses Declarer Play Class: Tuesday, starting October 6, 2009, 7 PM EDT Defense Class: Wednesday, starting October 7, 2009, 2 PM EDT 2/1 Class: Monday, October 5, 2009, 10 AM EDT These three courses are for intermediate players wanting to improve. They are 20-30 sessions, depending on the group. Once you have taken a course, you are welcome to sit in on future sessions to review. During the lessons, Shep's chat to the group is public, but students' questions and answers to Shep are sent privately. Shep will often send comments privately to individual students, as well as public comments. To each student, it should appear as if he is the only student in the room. Please contact Shep if you are interested in discussing participation in the group course or individual study sessions.
Lebensohl This is an 8-lesson course covering the use of Lebensohl after our 1NT opener, opener's reverse, after their weak 2 opener, and other competitive situations. The current course will end September 28, 2009. A new session will be held early in 2010. Contact Shep to arrange participation in the Lebensohl course.
Private Bidding Practice
Private Bidding and Play Practice One or two students can work on bidding at the Partnership Bidding Practice room.
Hands can be constrained to practice 1NT openers, Major or Minor suit openers, or almost
any other part of uncontested bidding. One or two students can also work on bidding and
play at Shep's Bridge Club, playing against Shep or the GIBs, with discussion during and after the hand. Contact Shep to arrange practice sessions with one or two players.
Self Designed Courses Are you trying to learn from a text? Shep will read along with you and answer your questions.
One way that works well is for you to read ahead, send Shep your questions, and Shep will prepare
answers, go through them with you at BBO and discuss. Contact Shep to arrange Self Study Courses.
Tournament Training Games During the online tourney, there is little bridge discussion apart from quick system
clarifications. After the game, Shep will email an analysis of the game answering the student's
questions. Contact Shep to arrange for playing and subsequent analysis.
Membership at Shep's Bridge Club Those who take any sort of lesson from Shep will be given membership in Shep's Bridge Club.
They can play or kibitz in the club as long as our rules are respected. Most games at the private
club or partnership bidding table welcome kibitzers.
Please email shep if you want to register for any of the classes.
