Greetings!
Welcome to new subscribers and welcome back to the regulars. I just returned from an amazing tournament in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. In this newsletter, you can read about the records set as well as some deals from this event. Also, there are other articles from the world of bridge.
Bridge Base Online

Any readers not familiar with BridgeBaseOnline are missing out big time.

This free site, developed by Fred Gitelman, has revolutionized online bridge. Thousands of players from all over the world play (or watch) 24/7. As a thanks to Fred (for promoting my site), I will play on May 20 with a BBO winner that is selected from a drawing at the end of April. More details at BridgeBase Online.

When on BBO, you can also try out my best-selling play-bridge software.

"Play Bridge with Larry Cohen" was voted "Software of the Year" by the American Bridge Teachers Association. Everyone that tries it, raves about it. You can also give it a try by downloading the free trial, here. (Note: This has lots of graphics and will take a long time for dial-up users.)

Report from Gatlinburg
Larry Cohen   Records Fall Gat team
Last month, I played in the largest regional ever. More than 10,000 tables were in play--larger than many nationals.

More than 4,000 players came to Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Shown here is our team that reached the finals of all 4 knockouts we entered. To read about the records and some deals from the tournament, click here.

Modified Jacoby 2NT
Larry Cohen   For advanced to expert players arthand
In last month's newsletter, there was an article for intermediates about Jacoby Transfers. This month's feature article is on Jacoby 2NT, a completely different animal.

This is a specialized method for responding to 1-of-a-major, and here is a summary of the modifications that my partner David Berkowitz and I use.

WARNING: I am not a convention pusher. This is only for the experts out there that have strong memories.

As always, the new Practice Bidding Hands for the month are posted on my website.
