Bridge
Question? You can look it up! |
|

You
can Look it Up! An amazing number of bridge questions can be
answered by a simple on-line search. Want to know more about a
convention, such as lebensohl? Just Google it. Want to know about
"fourth-best leads?" Google it. Make sure you put the
entire phrase exactly as you want it and in quotes. If you omit the
quotes, you will get a lot of junk. (For example, if you search for:
FOURTH BEST LEADS, you would get articles about "fourth,"
such as "Fourth of July," and articles about
"Best" and articles about "Leads." Here's an
assignment. Go to GOOGLE
and search for "Law of Total Tricks" -- don't forget those
quote marks!
