When
you and your partner sit down to play in a club or tournament
game, you’re expected to fill out a convention card listing
all the bidding and defensive carding agreements of the partnership.
David Lindop walks you through the process in this excellent series.
See the entire list below.

I
want to thank David Lindop for his wonderful articles each
month in the "play bridge" section of the Bridge
Bulletin regarding "keeping up with conventions".
These articles have helped me immensely. Due to the fine
work David does each month with his detailed
examples on how to fill out the convention card, I not only
understand how to fill out my card, I learn about the
specifics of the conventions in a way no other information
source has shown me. I tip my hat to David
and look forward to future articles on this subject. Thanks
again David for a job well done. I love to read the entire
Bridge Bulletin but especially the "play bridge"
section. I think it is well written and I highly recommend it
to all the people I come in contact with in the bridge
world.
